Thanks for all of your kind "get well" responses. I used Bony's patented pain medication last night, Maker's Mark Manhatten. Today I am "supervising" the final adjustments to the ride height and alignment. My son hopes to do the install for the kit on the yellow car today as well. I get to sit in a lawn chair and bark orders. I can't wait.

Question #4:

Timmy has four GTs. If Timmy does some work to one of his GTs and breaks two fingers while doing this work will Timmy have enough fingers to do the work on all of his GTs?

Please do not count thumbs when doing your calculations.

Your car looks great, love the wheels. Hope the fingers heal quickly. I have a blue car like yours as my screen saver, stunning color.

Tim, the car looks great that height! I just hope you didn't get blood on that beautiful GT... :eek Seriously though, sorry to hear you busted up 2 of your fingers. Sounds painful!

Oh, and I know it's probably quite difficult to drive these cars w/broken fingers, so if you find that having 4 GTs right now is a bit overwhelming, I'd be happy to help you out with that. :biggrin

Get well soon,
MJ

To paraphrase the joke going around now: "I'd rather go hunting with Tim than go for a car ride with Ted Kennedy."

How about a car ride with Teddy, or hunting with Dick Cheney?

Sorry to hear about your mishap. Kinda takes skinning a knuckle to a new level. I do have a question that maybe you could help me with. I have a GT500 on order and was wondering if Ford GT wheels would fit on it? I am thinking maybe the rears would be too wide? Any insight you could give me would help a bunch.

Thanks. Pat.

I think that I will stick with my Doctor's instructions. And by the way Neil's math is correct, seven.
