    I just want everyone here to know what a cool and helpful member "fan2488" is. He sent me a custom-made "monte-carlo bar" for my Maverick (all the way from Texas) and it's cool. He didn't even ask me to pay him up-front, he just sent it. I already have it installed, but I still need to blast and paint it. Might even have it powder-coated, not sure yet. I thought it was going to arrive without the brackets welded-on. Well i was wrong, it came ready to bolt in. I am quite pleased, to say the least...:dance:

    Yeah, I agree, but I MET HIM FIRST :p

    I also got a set of the bars, and I agree, they are very nice...a lot of thought and time went into them. Really cleans up under the hood and makes it look less cluttered. Everyone who has seen my bars has been put on "the list" and are standing in line waiting for mass production.

    He is definitely one of the benefits to our little online club (y)

    Since I've met Ed, my breath smells fresher, my clothes have never been cleaner nor my teeth whiter, and I've become much more regular!

    Ed could kick Chuck Norris' azz.


    Ed's just that good. (y)

    It helps the car corner better. Eliminates the flex between the shock towers. Basically improves handling - a lot.

    Ed is the man! He also fabricated the bracket to make my Column shift to floor shift conversion a piece of cake!
