                CJ - maybe next time huh?

                We hooked up with Casey after we got in yesterday and looked over the Phoebe situation pretty good. After being in the great white north for the last 6 months, this desert heat is going to be interesting. We really appreciate everyone who can make it to the WOT.

                    I'm sure there are parts we need that we don't even know about. It is a Jeep project after all. No worries - bring what you got Bob.

                              I dunno... It was a whole lotta work in a brief time but Phoebe Too was indeed resurrected by a tribe of barbarians. Yes, torches and other implements of melted and cut steel have been engaged as well.
