I took it apart and painted it black. It used to be white with flag decals on it. Looked stupid. It looked better black. I then drilled a hole on the side and mounted the vulcan mg.

Roadwarless, I used these cars that already look like they've been sitting in a junk yard for years. They're this set. http://www.m2machines.com/products1.php?id=175

Here's a new car I made. It's a Mercury with a mini-gun roof mounted. I used the straps for keeping goods on pallets. It make for great and cheap armor.

Suweet, thanks for the link. I do enjoy rigs not just for patina, or for restoring, i like em anyhow. Theres this 72 Chevelle driver i met, in town here, is green with white SS stripes, and a few bondo areas, but, Cragar mags n all, 80s style. Me likes

No date with the lady today, we havin a day off. Maybe tomorry a date with her. She is very forgiving, even of my autisms. The Chevelle driver? she is a cool lady too, but, my lady loves me anyway.

Thanks for the warmer sunnier weather from the States n all. Finally having a summer.

Your model cars are so boss i think thats what Murray Bozinski says in Riptide. I was a programmer light though, but also a jock in the 80s. I even made it to state championships in Wa state. Now im desking and enjoying summertime, making my 25 year old car worth his while. His name is Sylvester.

In Autoduel i run an agency trucker, in ADQ issue, im Trucker DAve McDade. I found out why i have obsessive driving skill. Sigh, the miles getcha eventually. But id rather help people than to just blow them away.

Any luck on your modeling? have you got any done. I'm starting to get into making some terrain, but it takes much longer to finish.
