Mark is riding his beast and making final adjustments but he looks good to go. Big effort on Marks part to get ready. he will update in another week. His last engine build sounded bad ass so certain the repairs won't change that at all.</div><div><br></div><div>2. JB - Ditto...final adjustments and good to go. Also look for final report from JB in another week...His engine sounds wicked fast.</div><div><br></div><div>3. MD - I am back in Fresno....met Haggerty insurance adjuster this morning which I have to say was a great experience. He's a car guy and loves the Pantera's.... We agreed I could have my body shop make 'temp' repairs to the golf ball sized aero mod and with paint stress cracks from the too fast drop off the back of the trailer it sounds like I will get a new paint job and possibly a new/old stock deck lid if body shop can not straighten it. I ran the Pantera with the insurance adjuster and we crawled in, under and out the suspension and brakes twice with body shop guy and she still drives perfectly. All agreed she is road worthy now and rocky the painter says he will even add black primer. Right now my plan is to leave o'dark hoursThursday Morning with Paul Katch. </div><div><br></div><div>4. The German is coming from Minneapolis where we just missed one another and Asa and Ms. Ferrari and usual Brazil Girls joining us. l hope to hear from the Pope (Crazy D #1) and anyone else who wants to join us.</div><div><br></div><div>Good times.....I can NOT remember when we were all this ready this far in advance. </div><div><br></div><div>See ya in Ely Boyz.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Tunnel of Love</div></div></div></body></html>
