Bill,
I'm speechless. And believe me that doesn't happen very often around these parts. Your build and detailing is just beyond comprehension. And your feature story is about the best I've ever read. Well detailed in the build process, and written in a style that is most entertaining. At some point as I was reading it, I started to hear your written words with a Texas accent.
Thanks so much for sharing your build with us.
Joel
