Ya! It was pretty awesome. It's been warming up here during the days, but then they dry out and freeze over night. I did this at 9 am in the morning so It'd stay clean ;)

Just watched the whole deal..wow..what a find, and you made it into a treasure..now all the hard work pays off. Its a beauty! The Beatles "she loves you" at the end topped it off...I was 11 yrs old in 1967, and remember falling in love with the firebird waaayyy back then..Youre a lucky man..and all the best to you.
