Hey all, this is a link to my website page. I'm currently trying to sell my Mini Cooper. If you know anyone looking for one please help out and pass it along. Thanks.

A recent paint correction performed by Shine Addict. Gorgeous black Camaro at American Resto Mods in Buford, Ga. Underwent compounding and 2 stages of fine polishes and sealed off with 2 coats of Collinite wax.

This year www.southeastwheelsevetns.com is sponsoring a unique project and I think most of you will enjoy a glimpse of the man with the brains behind it. Bob Sarda is working on a project to be the fasted man on steam powered wheels in a 1972 Honda!  Check out his Blog!  It is real good reading! http://southeastwheelsevents.com/profiles/blogs/bonneville-salt-fla...

PS Bob is a modest sort, in spite of his ambition. He will tell you he is not a graduate engineer, but a graduate Soap Box Derby kid! :-)
