Made Cars For My Groomsmen...
I'm getting married on Monday!! I'm super stoked and happy. Anyway, thats not important. What is important is I built some cars as Groomsmen gifts and I wanted to show them off! Each car was personalized for them specifically.
A Galary with close-ups of each car can be found here: imgur.com/a/oXgNYge
I also made a car for myself... because why not!?!? I found an old "Road Pirate" as its unoffically named (Mattel never decided on a name for it) and rebuilt it. It clocks in at just under 40g witih FTEs from a Ferrari Italia. Anyway, check it out!

The nice things about this is I now have some nice metal-on-metal castings that I can throw some new wheels into and make some track burners! The El Camino is using the Sillohettes Greenwood Corvette wheels. I plan to strip it and re-paint it (its so so ugly). Got some FTE2s from a Stingray that should look great on it once its prettied up!
Look good to me! I woulda been super excited to get such a gift and likely would have fiddled with it the entire wedding!
Congrats as well!
Matt
