Great minds think alike........!!

That snow's in Heber Springs? wow, We used to go thru there to take my sister to college in Searcy, and it always seemed like that area was 3-4 weeks ahead of us climate-wise. Everything would be blooming out down there while we were shivering in southern Missouri.

Great build man. I hate to call you a kid( I believe you said you were 17) but it's nice to see the younger crowd do nice work on their xj's and actually work! Keep it up.

Hey looks good man! I was wondering what you did with your old rims? I wouldnt mind taking them off your hands for a reasonable price, if you still got them?
