amazing! Shocked

You did an incredible job straightening those panels, only 48 hours worth of work is plenty fast for doing such a good job.

I went to a race and was amazed at how the drivers were not babying their 356's, 550's and other very valuable porches.

With skills like yours, I drive the hell out your race car too.
