finally
I just made it home from another long year overseas. It's about too because that nonsense was getting old. On Thursday I get to pick up my beast from Bruce! I had a lot of work done while I was away and now its time to enjoy the fruits of my labor. I want to thank everyone for the support they gave me with my B. Gorman issue, unfortunately this is still unresolved. I also would like to thank Bruce for all he has done for me, I'm sure that without him my E55's transformation would not have been possible. I will be posting pictures and maybe a video or two of my car when I get her back.

Welcome home! Glad Bruce is taking care of you and I hope the B.Gorman douchebag steps up or karma steps on him!
