Nitrozilla Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 One day, as I was talking to my granddaughter, she told me she wanted me to build her a model. Of course, I said yes and what would she like? Keeping in mind that youngsters can be very nonspecific, she said she wanted an Alligator Limousine. I said , no problem, then went about how the heck I was going to fulfill her request. So, I got a Sunnyside Limo diecast and found some rubber alligators and commenced to chopping. I later found out that what she REALLY wanted was a limo for the University of Florida Gators football team. This is the end result:
JustBill Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Haha! That story is too funny. Great imagination and execution though. How old is your granddaughter?

Nitrozilla Posted February 9, 2012 Author Posted February 9, 2012 Thank you so much EVERYBODY. Those are some great (and funny) comments. I put it in the mail to her today and she will get it before Valentines Day. I can't wait for her phone call. I know what she is getting is not what she is expecting. Just wish I could see the look on her face.
