lol, Ill give it a shot. If you were in Texas I would even be willing to make the drive to you so we can do some runs even if they are just for fun or loser buys lunch.

sorry to the op, didn't mean to thread jack.

We have a few members around HDF who have demonstrated their skills and could probably do it and make it look like a breeze, but they wouldn't be asking how to!!!!

That 103 would make a great starting point on a custom 'frame-up' build.
