Hey Maddawg, just got back from a week in D.C. myself. Flew into Reagan then drove straight to Dulles. Don't know why we didnt land there to start with? Great trip to the Air and Space Museum. My fav's were the Enola Gay and The SR-71 Blackbird. That thing was awesome sitting right under the...

It was nice to meet Gimpy and Oilcan Sunday. First guys I have actually met in person from the site. Hope you guys got home safe with little trouble. You guys had a big list of parts to pick-up. May need to bring a trailer next time. Heading out to D.C. in a bit, hope to catch up with this...

Were about 10 miles east of Charlotte. Come on down, we would be glad to have ya.

Its been a long project but I think were done. Posting a few pics of the 5 ton to see if anyone wants to chime in with a good name for it. We are going to put a name on it somewhere and can't settle on a name. If you have one let me know and I'll make sure you get credit for it when its painted...

Thats the info from the M54 manual. I can measure tomorrow, thought it sounded a little short?
