  10. Well this F430 build is not starting out good, a few very important parts are warped And doing some work, removed one of the engine piece's that was attached to engine brace, I think it will just look better, and easier to paint both pieces as well
  11. So really then, slim jims have been obsolete for the last what 5-6 years or longer, the new slim jims are the window Punch's / seat belt cutter tool . I remember my time at the Hospital 2004-2006, and the slim jim was a very tightly controlled tool, and only a few people could use it, and half the time it wouldn't work on half the cars to begin with
  12. I forgot to thank someone else, Danno's son, for helping me unload all my equipment, and thanks to Brad, and Bernie, for helping me get it all back out to the truck. Art, I didnt get a chance to meet all the out of towner's like I wanted too, and thank you, next time we will meet

  15. Brad, thanks for posting the pics, I wonder who will be staying in your trailer next year Congrats to yourself as well for picking up an award, remind me at the next meeting to tell you about one the categorys
  16. Dan, how long did you work in auto theft? Is owning a slim jim in some states or all of them illegal , I know towing company's and road service company's like AAA can have them. The hospital I worked had one, but it had to be signed out.
