Ya know these hot rods we build and play with are fun, But I did take note at the hot rod you had propped up on the wall, those are an absolute blast...

Post more on the pickup when you get a chance.

Really nice work so far. You seem to have ADD just like I do. That's not all that bad sometimes! :rolleyes:
