    :D Thanks Todd. Take a picture of the right side, just in case.:D

    I really like that power window mod of Thomas'. I already did a set for the Comet. It was really fairly easy.

    I agree, great job Dennis. John, your writing is just like listening to you talk. What a nice way to get into these cars. I know your brother is proud of you.

    Thanks for the compliments but all I do is put it together. Every good piece comes from its members.

    With no disrespect to his brother I had to call him and tell it was a great article, but to tease him a bit I called him John-Hemmingway-Ford when he answered the phone, he knew right away what that was about. :D :D

    Dennis way to put together a newsletter!! :D :D

    without Comet now just keeping in touch
    Yes nice work and nice writing

    Like the color pics, I had hoped to go to my first roundup this year, joined the club recently, but it will probably be number 12 that I get to, I want to make sure the Comet will get all the way there, so I have a little more to do to make it trust worthy fro a drive from 30 miles south of DSM Iowa, I just think it woudl be too hard to go with out taking my car. Know what I mean.
    Being my second issue of shorthorns, I am impressed so far, (y) it would be great if that grew to be a magazine someday, huh? ;)

    Come anyways...even without your car. You will have the time of your life. Plus, it will provide you tones of ideas and inspiration for your car.
