Funny you should ask Cody... it was a combination of untested new power meets road rage after being cut off by a 'blue hair' (nooffence for those who resemble that remark). Long story short I was cut off by an older gentleman and as soon as I could get by him I did. And as the saying goes "go big or go home" so I did. As the rearend came along side me I did the usual and turned toward it and applied gassssssssss. And as always it worked. I was headed straignt once again straigt for the median that seperated the mall from the road. All was fine until these images ( SPEED LIMIT 30MPH) began to get uncomfortably larger. Then I was chewing on glass but didn't notice it because the beast called road rage still had its grips on me.

The black door is the donor and is now painted and mated to the body just fine. I just have to find the pin stripes again and no one will be able to notice. this happened about 3 weeks ago.
Thanks go out to Jay Rice in west Tn and his collection of our favorite body style of chevy's...

     You know they say you don't know what to do in a situation until you have gone through it.
#1: The easiest and most obvious solution to any problem is 99% of the time correct.
#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.
