Congratulations! Welcome to the love/hate relationship. :lol: Fortunately more love than hate, except when you're in the middle of a project with everything going wrong. :p: Seriously though, sounds like an awesome project! :flag

Yes I bought it after the bidder backed out of the auction
I had a couple of nice gents from the forum go take a look at her for me
I also will be getting a lot of parts from the "barn" that will come with this and I belive most of those parts will be sold so Ill get some of my money back.
