Awesome, I've been eyeing that thing for weeks, I'm glad you got it for your son...he's a lucky kid.
I'm looking forward to watching this project.
I kinda like the tweaked rear seat, I don't think they came like that.
The tank looks great, are you going to leave that original and paint the rest?
What engine are you going with?

Thanks
