    Down to the last hundred or so parts to install? Looks great at 20 feet. Hopefully a nice Christmas present for Mitch. Nice car. Nicer owner. Congrats, Mitch, you have earned it, time to enjoy.

    In a round about way yes, Mitch supplied parts to the coal mine industry, huge warehouse with tons of parts. Coal mines shut down, Mitch shut down.

    Im not trying to get into politics, just my observation, Mitchell can correct me if I am wrong.

    this really belongs under a different thread. I posted the story but here is a short version. my business was in the transportation field. it leads a trend 6 to 12 months. Dec. 07 sales were $250,000 a month. Jan. 08 $100,000 a month. all contractors stopped working. coal companies froze purchasing. independent truckers disappeared. an amazing experience. I had purchase commitments and had just purchased three 400ai in one week. got cought with $300,000 payables. it happened that fast. at the same time my manager stole more than a million and murdered his wife

    Black is my favorite color on the 365/400/412 cars.

    Great looking car !

    There really is no justification In restorations - most of it is for the love of the car. Personally, if you go that route you are doing it because you wanted a particular car brand new. How else will you ever get one if you don't build it yourself?

    read. transportation leads the economy 6 to 12 months. Wal Mart has 40% of inventory on trucks or in the transportation pipeline. I ordered parts manufactured a year ahead for inventory. every industry has lead times. I weathered the money problem. but I was hand to mouth, by the week
