This is her today. I have every intention of bringing her in running condition to HoF!! She may not be pretty but she'll be there with any luck at all. Thanks to all who've contacted me to check on me. I hurt like hell but I also know how lucky I am to be alive and so thankful to my buddies Kevin, Ross, Roger, T-roy and of course son Bob and son-in-law Sean for helping me. We'll be back!!

Machinery can be replaced. The driver cannot. Hope you're on the mend, DA!

That's all that is wrong with it??? Pffftttttt......

That's only a flesh wound and I'm sure with your medic skils, you'll have her going again in no time. Let me know if you need any help. :)

Update in my quest to make the SHOF ride on the CC. Subframe replaced along with damaged steering components (Thank you Eric Anderson!!) . Engine is back in and test fired (started on 3rd pull but not allowed to run). Body damage pounded out to make room for above mentioned items. Not going to look pretty though. New plastic skis are off to the fabricator to have leaf springs mounted. Left to do includes pull the suspension to see what tore up my right hyfax. The guys said it was caused by a track clip so I'll have to check into that. Guess I'm right on schedule. DA

Don,
Even with some dents and scratches, your CC looks great! We hope to have ours ready (engine OH) for Detroit Lakes MN next weekend and that will be the "road test" for the HOF.
