    He probably is!

    I got the LH fender and grill section installed so I could put the radiator back in and sure enough, the lower water outlet hits my sway bar tube. I raised the radiator up to clear it and now I need to make sure the hood will still shut. I ordered a lower hose, and have to buy another upper because I can't seem to find where I hid the upper I had.

    I sprayed out a test panel for flame colors. My wife says the blue is too bright and needs to be darker. I may just add a darker color on top of this blue. I'm not sure yet.

    Ask your redheaded helper if he knows where the upper hose might be.....

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    It's quite possible he might know. If I could get him to remember that far back where he stashed it would be the problem. Case in point. The kid's swing set had a round type swing on one section that had broke down and came apart. I went to remove it and put a bench swing there and when I dropped a nut in the grass I got stabbed by a small screw driver. I only use that screw driver on glasses and I know I haven't had it in the yard let a lone out of the garage. I held it up and shook it at Cody and he grinned and took off. Nothing is safe.
