amphi thoughts - 01-20-2006, 03:27 PM


A couple of thoughts , Tom did a fantastic job on a nice solid car.
Last time we talked (as I remember) he stopped keeping track of hours at
1000. On the low end, plus estimating at what he paid for car, parts
and outside services. My low end estimate is 80,000. That does not
include travel, transportation, auction expenses, and taxes. He threw
the dice and he hit it just right. God it is great to be an American! I
think the only downside will be swim ins will become sit arounds. But
NOT this year!!! We beez rockin! In May suspiciously close to what has
been the date for My Swim In will be "Wheels round Wick" Tim Wick of
Wisconsin fame will be putting together a 3000 car show at The Wisconsin
Dells. He will post dates and info soon. Then beginning of June Fabula
Sabula, Iowa. 7 ramps , bars and tattoos. Yowzeer!! Then couple a weeks
after Celina. Budwieser shoot out. Lake of the Ozarks. Men bring Your
mirrored sunglasses, Women bring the Margaritas. Then to finish off a
most hectic finned year will be The Big Wave with Rog and Dave. Lunacy
at its best. Ten stops, We have a lot of crap planned for that one. But
You never know that 60k offer on BW2 just might be accepted. Later Dave
the Wave
