Congratulations on the win! You have done a very nice job on your ride. I like that all of the extras were off of Ford vehicles and were done very cleanly.

I bought it new in 2003 and it has been going through a slow evolution since then.

I just checked my e-mail. I got an update from CarDomain, all it really was, was to tell me that Rwenzing's truck was #1 there too. Way to go!
