PEH,
Very nice! I wish I could have a place to store a parts car, or my "next" car. I already get ribbed about the five working vehicles I keep in my driveway for me and my wife! I too pieced to gether bikes as a kid and as an adult, I have even saved half worn brakes pads and stuck them in as opposed to buying a new set of pads. I would not recommend this practice though, it was for an old VW rabbit that I kept limping along and just couldn't kill. I would never put more than 1/2 tank of gas in it so when it died I would not be out too much money! It never did die and I sold it to a friend for $100, who sold it a year later to another chap, and so on! I've since lost rack of it, but I know in my heart it is still puffing along!

Keep up the good work!
