Yep, the only way you could improve on it, is if you lived 3 miles away from him, which I used to. He made more than one personal delivery. Once there, if primed with enough wine, he'd often break out the air-cleaner-guitar and break into a rousing version of Stairway to Heaven:

Actually probably for the best that I don't live that close.
Roger would have thrown me out by now.
But, the project would most likely be a lot closer to "finished" if there is such a concept here.....

You've not spent any time in Dallas in the winter.

Ed,
Sorry, but if you had joined in on the Christmas event this year, we could have actually met. So, two times now....
Bite me.
That's why I put the "Duck" smiley in there....

Actually, and I said this to those in attendance and to a friend who now lives just east of Dalls proper, I was so disappointed. (Just ask Sterling) I was expecting Cactus, Cowboys, Spiders and Snakes. I got the same crap weather I had just left behind. About 35 degrees and wet, no cowboys, like one guy wearing the hat, and I think that was a tourist, no cactus, no tarantulas, and certainly no snakes.

On the other hand, met some great people, and had a great time, with the exception of the work thing during the day and the above-mentioned.

Best,



However, after just spending a really chilly winter in the garage

Ditto on Roger. As a newbie, he'll be getting more calls from me. I like the air filter air guitar pics. Now if we just had some sound to go with it.

I offered to Roger that he could have sex with my wife, and he politely declined!!

He's a helluva guy!

+1 on the recommendation. Placed an order for my p/s lines on Wednesday and they were here by Saturday. If it was only as easy re-threading the banjo bolts back onto the pump and rack.

I am a newbie, and so thankful for Roger's support. I had a no start on my 89 s4, and without Roger's help I would still be dead in the water. His rebuilt MAF's are awesome and a killer deal...like all the parts Ive orderd from him! Thank Roger!!!

This is so kind of you all and of course it happens because we have a team of dedictated employees.
Laura makes it really happen along with Ja who helps her out. Sean is always somewhere and an asset to the company even though he is his own boss and spends most of the time working on customers cars. Stacey our new lady in the accounts department and our expert on integrating our new systems is helping make life easier for all of us.

By the way we are not perfect and do make mistakes but how we handle those mistakes is what sorts the men from the boys 8>)
