New to NAM

Hi All. This is my first post - though I've been a reader for about a year. I have always benefited from the depth of information found here.

I cannot contain myself anymore....We love our car and invested even our blood into it.. O+...to be exact (my blood, the mech!)

You see these things on, in and around your car.. and geez.. who can contain it.

We were going to open up, well we planned on showing you all the car in Sep or Oct of 05, and in shows by 11/05 untill the car was, well, taken hostage <....... it's a major horror story, strickly related to the car,
but.. for a masochist only posts.

It took us this long to get off our knees in disbelief and look forward to this sep and oct... and correct all that went wrong..

So, here we are..on the up n up.. OK..a little down, just remembered all of it again.

Anyway.... whoo hoo, my car is finally gonna be, whoo hoo..

Jorge, be sure to check out the "Rants" thread in the Off Topic forum...I think you may find it a good venue for your story...

I'm not ranting (although we do rave every now and again somewhere on South, Miami Beach)....... it's about the future of the car, not the past.. but wanted to give a little history..

Not enough memory on NAM for me to post my "horror" story..

Won't bore anyone with it... although, the state is getting an ear full.

Happy Thoughts..

Just excited because only three to four months or so, and such,more or less, (trying not to ginx) are left...


Put it this way, remember what Tom Cruise did on Operas couch....


fist to the floor, whoo hoo, that's me.. as soon as I knew I got to a certain point that took a whiiiileeeee!
