I'd like to take a minute to thank all of you who are helping me, either with advice, or leads on potential trailers, or both.

Frank actually mentioned me on the most recent episode of The VAP. That was really cool, and I am deeply appreciative. And if Colin decides he doesn't want to use that 3-wheeled '63 then I'll try to be the first in line for it.

This forum is a unique and special place. I'm an electrical engineer (well, these days I'm a marketing manager type) and I work for a large semiconductor company. I've been programming computers since I was nine-- I bought my first, a Timex Sinclair 1000, with money I made mowing lawns and trimming trees. A couple of years later my parents bought an Apple IIe and I ran my own computer message board (we called them BBS's back then) from it using a 300-baud acoustical model. Since then I've owned, operated, administrated, moderated, and simply participated in scores (and perhaps hundreds?) of message boards and chat systems, and this one really is, by far, the most helpful and friendly place I've ever been on.

So anyway, I think that's my rather long-winded way of saying thanks to all of you for your help, I appreciate it very much. And a special thanks to Frank, who I think is making an extra effort to help me because he's afraid I'm going to sneak up there and try to steal Anna in the middle of the night.

No worries Frank, if I did, I'd be sure to leave you a big heaping helping of smoked brisket in her place. Maybe some ribs and sausage, too.
