Codi Posted September 19, 2018 Posted September 19, 2018 I learned along time ago that when it comes to your builds John, no matter how off the beaten path the subject might be, if anyone can make it look fantastic, it's you. I wasn't sure about this one when you began the thread but I knew better than to question it. Of course, you're simply killing it. Your attention to detail continues to set new standards. This last post really is fantastic and I'm a true fan of what you've done with it. Just superb John. cheers, tim
