This is like extended foreplay.

Instead of two hours of begging, We get 9 days of anticipation.

I had the priviledege of a preview and it was so good, I felt guilty for looking.

What you mean your employer won't swing for a  modular set up down there? Thought for sure you'ld be able to talk him into putting the Hulk in a shack and take it for a road trip! :P

good eye chris. if i stare at that too long i start too bust into seizure mode.

i have had the priveledge of seeing this car aswell, and allthough it wasnt quite finished at the time, the attention to detail is amazing. and the whole combo is impecable. truly a work of art. good job too all those involved in the build.

as for the classic weekend, the canadian content will be phenominal. darrens 55, the hulk and the hebrod. way to represent gentlemen. truly a killer canadian hat-trick.  B)
