      You might be insane taking the torch to the roof was a little much hopefully you didn't warp it again then wreck it and die. Watching a manual being torn apart like this is like watching wiener replacement surgery. My wiener hurts like my soul has been replaced.

I look at what you guys do and cant even comprehend how you keep track of all those parts and know how to put it all back together. I was always nervous to work on my own cars, but I can do all the basics now(oil, brakes, water pump, stereo wiring) and do all the work on my sportbikes. You have a huge setup and its not what I normally think of when I think "salvage" place!
