Re: Split Scream !
Hi guys
Just a quick update on the bus i have decided to move the painting to the 8'th of november there are still some paint issues
and i want to make sure i have everything "lined" up for the assembly after paint.(I guess i have waited this long two weeks shouldnt make a difference)

My biggest fear is that my wife sells my cars for what i told her they cost !!

Re: Split Scream !
