I call it "Love Potion No. 9." It is in a class of its own, to be sure.
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Yes, John. At customer's request, it's per Graham's. But because of smaller body area, less amber center and more transition through the colors.

I used to think the same thing about CB and ordered my AZ Blue WB without it when it was an available option. Bummer. I love it now, and CB looks great on the double bound 381 too!!

The week is almost over and I haven't received any drugs yet. I really don't want have to check into rehab as I here those clinics steer the patients towards G****** & F******. :lol:

Working on it (them). I've got one in per-tik-ler that I'd love to share, but have to wait until it's finished 100%.

You'll know why when you see it. I can give a clue, however...it's finished in a new burst called "Chianti".

Beyond that, mum's the woid.

I'm just wrapping up a '58 Capri...photos on that in a day or two. The rest right now are Light Show conversions. The Aqua Bass is being fettled.

Just hang on another day or two. Aitch will probably be in a shot or two.
