Hey Art I just found this thread. Your ski definately deserved a buildup thread. This is one of the cleanest Superjets around.

[bad93blaster]

this must be a slow build up (j/k)

Just saw the craft in person yesterday.

Awesome !

Beyond clean, You could eat off it !!!!

How about a brand new MSD enhancer sealed in the box

$225.00 delivered via UPS ground to you? Not bad for a item that retails for $250.00 ppus tax and shipping.

Interested PM Me

I can ship Monday and accept paypal payments
