Here is it the wee hour of the morning for me and for others the sun is already cresting the horizon and yet I am not only still going strong but even more so, I am all smiles.
Certainly many know that at the drop of a dime I will do for anyone all that I can truly enjoying every minute of the process never looking for or expecting anything more than a genuine relationship in return. I have shared before that this is IMO not only one of the (if not) best Forums hands down but what is most significant IMO are the folks that have created this place to hang out from time to time.
Having shared this; a year or so ago I reached out looking for another engine build plate not knowing if once removed it would be toast and no sooner did I ask and a significant Forum member contacted me sharing that “just maybe” he could help. Well to share what he did would be beyond belief by most as such I will let it be sufficient to say that he answered the proverbial call beyond my wildest expectations. BTW this Forum member not only materially participates within this Forum but also extends himself to others within his community often times in concert with his personal Ford GT. The point I am attempting to make at this late/early hour is that he is what I refer to as “salt of the earth”, a real Joe, a person that I have come to respect very much.
It was shortly after this and as our relationship unfolded that he casually made mention of someday creating a custom signature plate or ? for my gal; something representative of what I do throughout the automotive marketplace. Periodically we would communicate about it and then finally a fundamental direction was defined however no promises were made nor were there any expectations from my end but rather I saw/felt that we would explore some cool ideas and in the end the time spent would be enriching whether the concept became a reality or not.
Now move forward several more months; much of this time with little communication between us and again the topic was brought up however to my surprise by this time it had been being turned into reality without my knowledge. Ultimately I forwarded some specific data and even some material to work with so that the final feasibility could be determined.
Here it is now a couple months later during which I received periodic teasers a most wonderful package arrived at my facility and within is the single nicest personal touch item I could ever have imagined for my gal.
The first couple pictures are shown simply as the means to depict to all that this was truly a scope and magnitude process and then the last three are the process as completed during the test run. I would have taken pictures of the final pair that are presently being installed on my gal however I could not get the picture resolution crisp enough.
I hope that to a person you enjoy seeing them even a small percentage of how much I enjoyed receiving them.
A heartfelt thank you goes out for this most wonderful gift
