thanks guys. I t could have been a lot worse I know. @joecool....the hardbody was a truck I owned in late 90'2. it was the first bodied mini in Wisconsin. I bought it done out of ill., and the body drop was done in California by sean mahaney when he owned trendsetters. I sold it to buy back a b-series I had (DONT ASK!!!!!), and it subsequently was tossed from hand to hand atleast 6 times, before ending up, im told, in a junk yard in southern Wisconsin. I tried to find it again, but the kid I sold it to was the last registered owner, so I was harassing people as I found out their names, with the final guy telling me he sold it, and that guy junked it. im still heart broken over that.
