no worries, it took me 45 minutes to get it sorted so i know how frustrating it is.

i can't believe the amount of work they did on the back suspention in just 1 day.
and how about that motor (at first i was wondering why they didn't clearly say who's build that engine, made sence later on :-)

it's sure worth a 2nd viewing, i might even rig the pc up with all the extra cables so i can watch it on the big screen tv in the livingroom.

did you spot the new kieft & klok slammed/narrowed pickup? it was on screen for a few seconds, build by the guy that did the wireing (amongst other things) on the saur kraut
