It will be ready (engine and paint) by the 16th. The wheels by the end of
the month, and the suspension by early sept. I am currently driving it now,
but its going in for pait on moday for about a week and a half. I will not
be bringing my truck to the mopar nats unfortunately. I will still try to
make it there on saturday though.
