Great job! :thumbup: I LOVE this car! :drool:

Fantastic blue. Love the solid color with black pipes and rollbar. The taillights, pin-drives and billboards really finish it off.

Congrats! :beerchug:

Bu - tee -ful !!!
Can you provide some info on the 390 please. I want to go the same way. Did you build it or did you purchase?
Also, can you describe the shaved truck detail a bit - how did you go about it?
Have fun and take care of that great car !!
