Had to chuckle a bit when I saw the picture, at least you had company ! looks like a parking lot got flooded. I'm Guessing you managed to get everyone unstuck ? Nice work on the car so far, close call on the Black Widow, I really hate those things and they get into everything, we have a lot of them where I live in Idaho. When I was little my grandparents still had an outhouse, and that thing had spiders in it.... scary stuff. Keep up the work and keep posting pics of your progress !

yah we got the trucks n my suv out, but it took 2 tractors and a tow truck with a 25,000 lb hydrolic wench... had to go about 500 feet down in the bush...

yah ill be back working on my 260 next day or two...
but thanks
