Nice choice. If this thing ends up looking anything like OLD SMOOTHIE you are going to end up with another great build. Cool.

Let's not forget the fuzzy dice Bryan, hee.

[bryan_m]

i think i have a pair here Don!

bryan

[PistonDog]

anagram is Oldsmobile = Mold So Bile?

[cobraman]

We all have a pair. Oh, you mean dice . Build it bold and it could the "The Boldsmobile " Are you going to open it up at all ? Blue and white sounds good.

[bryan_m]

ha! thats great ray!

nah, im not gonna open anything.......it seems like when i do that i lose interest. i guess i hate makin door jambs! its easy on a early 30s car, there really isnt a door jamb to speak of......but one this new, i usually get discouraged.

cheers
