    They look the business looks like this is going to be a great build as well.

    It looks like some have already taken the front row seats so will sit at the back

    It's not hard to see why people are wanting you to make their wooden items for them, your quality looks spot on.

    Sorry, life got in the way as it's want to do. This will be among the last builds like this I do until I spend a considerable amount of time on research and development into speeding the whole process up whilst maintaining a high quality. I'm thinking along the lines of a copy carver and several router pantograph machines. Luckily I have an inheritance coming soon to make this possible, thank you Grandma XOXOX

    Cool Cool build!

    Like the truck and love the trailer, and what it's carrying is way fast looking.

    Thanks Dalboy, I used one teaspoon of yellow water based paint to two teaspoons of water, brushed it on then wiped it off like stain I'm pretty happy with it, it may even become a feature of some of my stuff now.
