Looking good. Is the bracket from the torsion tube to the lock post a way to put a little weight on the chassis for fitting panels when its not on its wheels?

Obviously too busy with his "smoking hot" wife to be bothered with the likes of us.

I'm afraid there is bad news about Mark. I hope I'm wrong, but a quick search turns up the following:

http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/name/mark-minkoff-obituary?pid=1000000175124214&page=2

https://cotobuzz.blogspot.com/2014/06/individual-arrested-in-coto-de-caza.html

His Facebook page seems to be inactive, also: https://www.facebook.com/mark.minkoff

Checked out his wife's FB: https://www.facebook.com/sherry.minkoff?fref=ts

He is gone, but wow, she hasn't missed a beat!
