Oh man some buddy stole the car out of my driveway !!!! That is a great build loved the detail under the hood, realistic electrical tape on the wiring ! The interior and the paint are great. And what can I say about the Illinois plate ....... It would look very nice cruising our one ways ! Great job !!
