WOW... Amazing. I wouldn't want to drive it after that. Phil, any time you're in the DC area, let me know. I've got a C4S with your name on it.

Agreed. That is great work.

I do need to find someone in the DC area that can prep the TME once the sale is final.

Is that how the Lusso Oro comes Phil? You have to rub it on to the PC?

Any other information on it?
