Don't care how much they cost, I'm down for 2. Great way to raise the needed funds and great way to show the project. Not to mention good looking hat.

Thank you so much for all you have done and are doing. This motor is really going to make a huge difference in the OBB! I can't wait to see the pics. and I really can't wait to see the look on my Hubby's face when he opens the hood to find an awesome surprise inside! ;D

OBB Banner

It's going to be close on the banner guys. I dropped the ball and waited too late to order it. It would have been done today, but the Hurricane Panic slowed everything down. Hopefully it will still be done in time. I'll keep you psted and see everyone in acouple of days.
