Thanks Tom. I Saw one when I was younger and loved it. Recently retired from local fire department and finally found one after 25 plus years looking in my area (southeast Kansas) Super excited about it. Started it first time this past weekend. Can’t wait to get it on the road. Shooting for spring, but we’ll see.
 
Making great progress! Gonna be a fun little screamer when you're done! Welcome to BCF!
