OMG.....I still cant convince my brain to believe what i read actually happened. Are you guys crazy....i have to give you big props for your relentless will. If that was me, ida just hooked it up to a truck travellin my direction and dragged that mutha all the way home:) hahahaaha.....ive not got the patience.

So who were the other 3 people with you? are they all forum members? And ive seen that mural van before, did the owner move and you went to get it for him, or did the original owner sell it and you went and got it for the new owner?

I think the most incredible part of the story is the fact that you did a Gas Conversion on the spot, to save on petrol....NOW THATS GOLD!!! Like to see a Greenie go that far:) ahaha

Your arm looked fine also? You heal quick.....i thought it would still be bandaged up and hangin from the tendons:) lol

GOOD ONYA I SAY.......Man if i was 10-15yrs younger......I STILL couldnt do it:) hehehe

Man, you guys are crazy!!!
Ben you and your crew have talent. Forget about all those singing and cooking shows on tv. They need a tv show about a roadside gas conversion all done in a broken thong!
I'm so glad I found this website
