??jim's garage chassis??

well shortly after posting my chassis for sell got an offer for jim's #7 chassis as a trade; untouched since completion a few years ago.

my new friend jamie from denton delivered on saturday and he and friend bobby stayed and helped us strip mine, cookout, share a few beers and stories. we had a terrific day!

side note, work smart not hard
