Yup,
Frank and I exchanged emails after 11:00 pm on Sunday. He had looked in his
"coop" for a pumpkin a fellow in Canada I am working-with might need.
As always, he never forgot a request for assistance and always followed-through.

My car is already in Tom's River, well the shell is anyway. My car is very
rusted out and the easiest way for me to get it back on the road was to buy a
shell. Well I did and frank towed it to Tom's River a few weeks ago. He and I
and a couple others spent the weekend taking doors and fenders off and sanding
and bondoing to get it ready for primer. I left it in primer in his garage a
couple weeks ago while I went on a long scheduled Rhine RIver Cruise (really
BAD
internet on a river). I got home on Sunday and emailed Frank as to where we
were. He replied he had been blocking it and filling it and everything was
ready
for paint. He had been told a sealer . . ., well. I'll let Frank speak for
himself:
