Great work Lou. Looks even better when you see it up close. Your getting real close to shooting the juice to it. Did anyone get pictures at Greg's yesterday.

Lou - Thanks for the demo on Sunday. All of us enjoyed it.

We are hooked!!!

Started doing research on 1/14th scale ZX350-3 build. We want it to be all electric though. We'll keep you posted. Probably going to need lots of help from you and Greg.

Thanks again,
Albert Jr

Lou, I have to ask- Is your wife around when you are working on your toys on the GLASS topped table? I would get at least 7 years of grief if I did something like that! Toys look fantastic! Nothing wrong with the Silverado either!

Thanks for all the comments and compliments everyone...Im pretty lucky that my wife puts up with that crap...the way she sees it if i didnt bring a little stuff in now and then i would be in the shop all day and she would only see me for dinner lol..

Jason ..I realy like what you did with your sons chevy.He must be pretty excited
I really like the detail in this truck ,lights and grill look awsome ...this one is the same colour as my 1 to 1 too...downside is there is quite a few body scratches and a windsheild has some pretty good ones as well ...I wonder if they could be buffed out...I have my eye on a set of tires and rims at RC4WD that are a bit more scale and think i may work on the box and add some tread plate and a tidy tank..
