In the years I have been here I have had the opportunity to meet and make friends with some very cool people. Some only through my keyboard but others like Tony- Boyt911sc, Rob Adams, Chris- VincentVega, Mike- Porchdog and Jim Tweet I have had the opportunity to meet in person.

Jim I had the opportunity to meet a few years ago. I was able to go to his house and see where he creates those magnificent machines.

Most of my interaction has been through texting and his builds threads. I did have the opportunity to attend Tony's (Boyt911SC) engine class, where Jim was also in attendance.

The past few weeks have been very difficult for me. My mother suddenly and unexpectedly passed away. Jim phoned or text every day to see how I was holding up. I can not begin to express my appreciation for his support.

Today however, was the topper. Twenty some odd years ago after a very minor fender bender I pulled my car into my garage. I never started it again. Jim came to my house this morning at 8:00AM and stayed until about 2:00. He brought his tools, including a lift table. Jim helped me or should I say I helped him get my engine running. Then we pulled the motor out of the car so I could do work to the under carriage.

Thanks Jim.
