Fred,

As soon as I get it to where I'm happy enough with it to let you guys pick it apart, I'll bring it over. It does appear to need a rear main seal and I need to get it on a rack so I can do my detailing magic on the underbody so maybe we could get together at the shop sometime in the next months.

... and on the turbo truck thing?... just between you and me?... no one believes you.

That things been sitting waiting to have the motor plugged in for how long now?

I'm not sure there really is a turbo truck, so you've got some proving to do mister man.
