I got to drop by KMS today and see the progress on the shop "balcony", soon to be corporate gym. I can not believe that the space has been cleaned out. (Once I went up there to find a gauge and was lost for 6 days before Steve found me.) Now it is just an empty space with a lonely pallet of floor tiles and a bunch of workout gear.
Here is a pic of David with his new rings and climbing rope. At least it is a picture of what is left of him! He has taken this shrinking man thing to a new level. I gotta try and catch up.
I also picked up my "garage art". Part of the frame from a real CSX car, undoubtedly formed and welded by dudes with bad teeth and shipped over the ocean to be brought to life with a ground poundin' FE! My wife thinks it is just some rusty old tubing. Beauty as they say...

Hex,
Great update … all of that treasure had to come from somewhere! I like the 'garage art' tubing you picked up … looks like something that would fit on Santa's Sleigh

Yep you can tell by the extra length on his belt! That's one heck of a jute rope, does he have an orangutan working out with him or what!
My wife didn't respond well with comments of starting another cobra project over again (the body/ frame deal). I think she needs to see "Scrooge" again. Or possibly she does know better and I'm daydreaming again!
Still wouldn't mind just being the fly on the wall at that place!!

Hey all
I'd like to call attention to what an outstanding and trusting person David Kirkham is.
If you've read this thread, you know that I purchased the differential and I also bought a set of FIA brake ducts. I talked to David on Monday, asked if I could pay by check and sent payment. Today (Wednesday) , I come home from work and the brake ducts and differential mounts have arrived! I sent payment by snail-mail and know he did not receive it before shipping!
So I just want to remind everyone, (like we all didn't know before) that the person we are all dealing with here is one of those rare, honest, totally trusting people that we all should be. This one is the genuine article!
Thank you very much David!
Larry

No, just haven't had time to take a picture yet.
UPS gave up on us filling up their truck and pulled out the big guns today.

No, the bracket is extra. We retail the 1 piece bracket that holds all three cans for $50. I'll let them go for $30.

The expression on the UPS guy's face appears to be one of a tired man........maybe he could benefit from Crossfit training at the new Kirkham gym!

Here is an older picture of the cans with the old clamps. We don't use these lids or clamps any more. We use the Wilwood lids.
