BHarrison Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 That is going to be super cool X! I have the Olympic Gold version in the early stages as well. I'll have to park mine away from yours in NC this year so I don't look bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadcylinder Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I was trying to find which models had dog dishes and steel rims for my lil' COPO 69' Camaro project. Then I bump into this model master. It is great to see that great minds think alike!! You are a visionary! That is one heck of an awesome setup you have there. I only hope my build goes half as well as your's. Really, really dig the color. Kudos!... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
