ran outta wire in the middle of weldin it up (note to self check wire and gas before you start!)
its great when you go to the gas station and people look at you like your nut when you have the nozzle pointed inside your ride!
Nobody stole my idea, I am happy that I was able to inspire members to pick up a mig welder and modify their own vans.
