Hiya Rick,

Yup! T'weren't bad for a glass car! Even fooled a few folks who owned originals.

Since you started this thread, I've been thinking about Jim Dove. How 'bout some of us buying him out. Remember, he has ALL of the FE head and intake casting molds from Ford and has done some interesting things with some of them.

All that is needed is business management and some real quality control. He's not the first craftsman I've seen try to run a business and not succeed and I'm not trying to run him down. It just doesn't always work. I'm reasonably sure he has more than enough mechanical savvy, just lacks the business mentality.

Seems like if a guy could get Jim to agree to remain part of it, everybody could win.....including the customer.

Whaddaya think?

Al
