Am I crazy?....I thought I read that it was going to be finished as England's 'U'VE HAD IT'.

Can't wait to see it either.

Well, I didn't want to say anything. Didn't feel like causing a big fuss. It's been a dream of mine to own "Old Crow" for a while. I've had a picture of her hanging on the wall since she was painted up as "Rascal". She's been sitting in my garage waiting for the end of winter.......





(if anyone wakes me up outta this daydream, I'll murdalize him.)

It does indeed, several contemporary photos show this clearly.
