mopar68 Posted September 24, 2012 Posted September 24, 2012 No need to apologize for my having seen it before, it's good to get another look at this one Mate that is one killa build, and it looks incredibly realistic in the pics.

Wagoneer81 Posted December 7, 2012 Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) That's INSANE!!!!!!! I love it! Well done!!! It looks like it'd be a backbreaker to ride but man... what a graceful, flowing, sleek looking ride! I'd be proud to own it! I do love the outdoor, natural sunlight shots, especially the reflection shot. Edited December 7, 2012 by Wagoneer81
