Should have all the trackpads by the end of this month. Things picking up. Sponcers lining up to help fund this one of a kind project.

Thank you. The delivery date is October late. Unveil is set for November 2 . Even George Patton's grandson, donated to the build by purchasing track pads. Track pads made with your name are available through the Indiana Military Museum to help offset the costs. So if anyone wishes to be apart of this historic event , just give them a call.
