Great photos Rich, watching Don and his many teams over the years tear that car apart, repair the damage, and put it back together was VERY IMPRESSIVE and shows the dedication of many Friends members and the organization to stick with that project until it was finished doing whatever was necessary.

Don Bayer deserves special praise for leading the many teams 5 and 6 work session for YEARS seeing his project through to completion. Thanks Don! :smiley24:

I have just read Dispatch and the article on the RPO rebuild. Congratulations to Don Bayer and his team for a job obviously very well done. I am very proud to have had a small part in the work some years ago. A great job guys! :proceed: Terry for Pat & Terry Boardman

The picture 2014-1 is actually a picture that I took Saturday morning after we put the lettering on and clear coated the RPO and sent to Tim. The RPO was a great project to be a part of and Don was a great person to work with.
