    thats a really dedicated guy. spot putty on a model. surprised he didnt block the car( unless i missed something). finish is better than on my ramcharger! thats one nice rig.especially like the bit about the polishing, he was waaaaay into that . i was expecting to see he entered a car show with real cars and won..hehe

    there are alot of really dedicated guys building on that site. the part that got me was how well the hood stripes turned out, cant say i like the color choices but you have to admire work like that

    What a great job he's doing on that model. I'm not a fan of huge rims, but that thing is quite beautiful. What detail!
