Great day today!!!The 85 Elky I bought two months ago was finally delivered!! I felt like a little kid as they opened the doors on the trailer and I watched the Elky come to life and drive down the ramp.

By Friday my buddy will breath new life into the TH350-and then its off to the Exhaust Shop to install the dual exhaust-

My girlfriend is sitting here laughing-she figures that our time together will resume when the summer months are over--I guess I'll move my bed to the garage-I'll keep you posted!!! Pete NYC :)

Its good to hear that your truck finally made it home. :D I guess a lot of us here know just how you feel wheather we picked it up our selfs or had it delivered. Nothing like having it at your house. I generally really crawl through them, look at everything, touch and feel this and that and try to vision what it will look like when it is finished and my robby a$$ is sitting behind the wheel driving it.

Congratulations!
