    It's a good thing to trust your own instincts. They usually prove to be the correct answer! You have a beautiful daughter, I have one also , her name is Shanna . I don't think I could go 2 years without seeing her or giving her a hug and saying, "I love you." Great job on the fenders , masterfully done .😊 oh, and yes, winter is on the way here in Montana USA. we've had snow already at 6000 ft,, and no, I'm not looking forward to it.

    Hello again Diff from John in Canada . Once again I have to say how much I appreciate your enthusiasm and creativity toward problem solving and fabrication and final design. That was a great job on the rear fenders. What is especially encouraging however, is your willingness to share with the u tube viewers the love that you have for your daughter! Rat rods will come and go. They are just material things , but love is forever and in the end , that's what really matters!
