Thanks Kev! I am a happy camper right now. A relieved happy camper. Everything just seemed to fall into place. Was a lot of work and actually I financed it from parts sales from a drum I sold on ebay that was given to me and USPS destroyed the shell so they paid the insurance and I sold all the remaining parts which paid for this kit restoration or 75% of it at least.

It was meant to be, apparently.
It's tough for a Human Being to arrange a set of circumstances like that.
Must be coming from somewhere else......yepper !

Very nice kit! I'm a big fan of blue! Congrats on a job well done!

Thanks SlingerLynn and also thank you John for the advice and wrap suggestions, Billnvick and Fungus for ideas and Spencer and AL for tom shells.
Blair and others for input. I may be rained out for my gig today at the fairgrounds. Give me a chance to stay home and tweak them up some.
