End of month would be pushing it. My drag link should be here Friday so
I can tighten up the steering but I'm still trying to pinpoint a good
time for me to make the 200 mile round trip to get the 5x5 birch in
Houston. I'll check one or two slightly closer places tomorrow that I
missed on google when I searched before but I'm not hopeful.

My local lumber man hasn't gotten me my pieces for the Westy bench seat
yet either. Going to have to rapid-cure those in a bathroom with a
propane heater.

I'm shooting for the Classic.
