After 10 years of life getting in the way, I'm trying to get back on track.

It does feel good. After making parts for other people's cars for over 10 years, this is the first that I've made that's making onto my own! Every time I started making something for my car, someone would order it.

I'm planning on Sebring style flares at all 4 corners, glass front fenders, the modified front bumper, modified MGC hood, and modified rear valance. It's good to know a guy that makes this stuff. ;)

I know it's about time.

It's a shame that I can't make the Townsend event. Work/kids/wife still get top priority.

I'd like to get a few good looks at the success stories that will be there. I've never had an opportunity to get up closer and personal with a v8 MGB.
