      Been there, done that, hopefully not again. Also, good brakes way better than a car trunk.

          Glad you got your XJ up & going again! That's great!

          I guess you got your forks issue taken care of then?

              Those kind of flying lessons are damn expensive too. I have taken a couple.

              Glad to hear you are mobile again.

                  $40.00

                  well took her on a little longer run sat. runs ok but still need a rack of hearts for the beast(carbs). Think i am going to name her TRIXY. After the flying lessons and getting her back on the road to the toon of 20 dollars she still fires and goes down the hiway,thats all a trick in itself. So trixy? lets here the input and the jokes....lol
