125 large. Came in at about 50-50 on the roller and engine tranny combo plus 15 large on the install. Oh, and included in the rollup is payin' da man in Arizona his tax: 7 large. A lot of cash, sure, but I worked 53 years for this and it will give me something to do after I retire. Like checking all is in order before taking it for a ride, tightening all the nuts and bolts after I drive it, changing oil, polishing, nah, dusting it off and in general just havin' a good time. Did I get that right?

BTW I tried sending you three pm's and I do not know if they took. John, AKA, tin-man
