Thanks Curt...its nice to get back at it..got a bit more done as well, then I lit my tourch, dropped my striker and kind of kicked it, torch was going so I did some heating and welding and then spent 20-30 min looking for the striker.. Finally gave up and came in to warm up with a beer..its really irritating me now my biggest goal is to find my striker...the garage is tidy to..eeeerrrrr :angry-cussingblack:
