    Gas Fumes

    Today had a strong odor of gas when I took the car out. No leaks anywhere but it's the first time I had a nearly full fuel tank. Gas level in the tank was about 2" from the top. Car was in the garage so it was not from sitting in the sun. Fuel tank vent seems to be proper as well. ???

    Montana Tag & Title

    My MT Tag & Title arrived today (#227). The VIN assigned was the DF Frame number. It took close to 60 days since the first set of paperwork was supposedly lost in the mail. After sending the second set it took 43 days. PS: I think the tag with the date sticker goes in the rear .... oops !!!

    Wrap

    Anyone Wrap their own Goblin? I am considering this since the side panels will be easy & the fenders don't look too hard. I'm guessing if I have issues with the hood I can get a pro to do just that part.
