    Walk in the Park...........start pulling Heads, changing Hard Parts, that's surgery. Your new ride will be just fine with the work in front of it.

    That's fantastic! I would let someone else fix my stuff for that! I'm getting tired of finding broken stuff everywhere I turn. The pendulum has to swing the other way for me soon. Great for you to have the first phase completed for such a reasonable price.
