Well after approximately 3 years in the restoration process, Mark and Norman actually had motion from the M75. Now this wasn't dragging it around with the tractor, telehandler or forklift . This was as in it started and they "drove" it around the perimeter of the property . Now, there is still work to be done, fine tuning the inside with all the cool gadgetry and cleaning it up and getting the stars on it etc. They have worked so hard on this and it has had its "ups & downs" I myself was gone during the time of this great accomplishment. I came home and expected to see it sitting in the driveway area but NO................It was in "MY" garage!!!! Never thought of that, no less, that it would even fit in there, but oh yes, it did, just barely!!! I will hopefully have some pix or a video at IM for those of you who are interested. Can't wait to see everyone and catch up on stuff!!! Take care and seeya in 23(is that right Mac?). Also, congrats to Frank on his article publishing!!! Way to go FRANK!!!

But now I see, gee wonder who helped you, hmmmmm???? wouldn't of been, Carol would it?? I sure am going to be praying real hard for some nice weather down there. Put your order in okay???
