I just popped in to see how your project is coming along and, as always, I'm blown away by what you've done!

Amazing stuff, my friend!

I'll bet you wish your 1:1 was coming along this quickly... unless it is and we just don't know it yet.

Regards,

David G.

Little rubber 0-rings may work better for the wheelie-bar tires...Just a suggestion.

Hey Bro dont think I'll be needing those lil O-rings the solder worked out just fine.

Which leads me to this next post I was able to paint the wheeliebar wheels and get the whole thing installed on the car hope you enjoy the pics. B)

All I can say is, I'm sure glad I'm not your 1:1 body man! He must be getting tired of you considering how this model must be making you itch for the big one to get done. B)

It must be the exhaust because I sure hear it as well man LOL. Yes, he did do it again it looks likes. Each time I see he made a reply, i can't help but wonder what he has done this time on the build. I feel just like you do on his project here.
