Joker Posted January 20, 2013 Share Posted January 20, 2013 Hey Al is that green going to be the body colour should be good .BTW I have to say that sterring wheel sucks just my 2 pence It's a classic piece of custom styrene from the "Classic American Iron" '49 Mercury. I just happen to like Al's steering wheel for obvious reasons. Like belly buttons...to each their own. Joker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
