    Taz came to me with this idea of a build at the nats this year aobut 6
    months ago, we talked about just what kind of modification and to who`s
    van we were going to do this to. We came up with a what and to whom and
    started to get things togeather to make it happen.
    Taz employed the help of his tranny guy to build the trans and he was
    instrumental in getting the support of a carquest parts store to donate
    a very large amount of new parts to make this a sucess.
    We also had a number of vanners who also donated thier spare parts and
    time and some green to put togeather all the pieces and parts needed.
    I would like to take this time to thank all involved with this project.
    Thanks,RD

    Thanks Again to RD, Taz, Mike, Paul and Mac. and everybody who helped in anyway. The van is running great, I took it to it's first fire call this afternoon, really need to do the disc brake conversion, stopping from 100mph is a little scary with the drums.

    I can't think of a better candidate for this. I have met Ben 3-4 times. He's a quiet guy, but a good guy
