HAmmer-N- Dollie (on the HAMB)and I had toyed with the idea of building a LSR car, we had everything to get started, and he ended up getting a Job in Colorado, so that got halted and we sold everything.. But man I would love to find another partner and do it, there are some soft records that i think are very obtainable with out a million dollars in it!
