Wow -- bus is looking mighty fine :thumbs:

Eric:
We were talking a little about window frame installation at the Monument show.... well, here's a quote from KCW's John Jones to one of his customers:

" If you don't hate yourself.. You will call in the morning and tell me to put the front door window frames together for you.. But, if you do hate yourself.. You and mike can put them together at his house!"

.... doesn't sound like a fun job.

:lol: Fun or not, it has to be done. I did get the gates where i'm really happy with them, and that wasn't fun either. Gerson was off on the mounting holes for the latches :furious: Amazing how a few fractions of an inch can make such a difference. I had to take .040 off the rear latches and some off the front too for everything to line up, but it looks great now. It was nice talking with you Sunday, I'm looking forward to that shop visit in the 356!! I want a ride in that beauty!! 8-)
