Good to see you made it........

 

Thanks fellas we made it and what a fucking big weekend just left Sydney on out way home I'll post some pics that people put on Facebook. But what a great reaction to the car and the Eldorados in true for lined a row on beer bottles next to the car and while everyone had rope aroun there cars ha ha. So much beer so much shit food an I won street machine magazines pick which was heaps better than the other trophies cause it was a framed Keith Weesner print. Perfect. Mind u I was in bed at the motel hung over as fuck when they announced all the awards ha ha.

 

Hell yeah brother. Those are some cool shots from the show. I'm glad you had a good time and all went well with the spinner. I am sure you are looking forward to some well-deserved downtime.

 

Ha ha thanks mate, had a fucking awesome time feelin like crap now but so worth it. Was a good reaction to the car wen though it's still unfinished and way off finished and one highlight apart from gettin waisted all weekend was coming out sideways in te wet onto the main road through Sydney CBd and I don't even have a drivers licence ha ha. Such a good weekend and rewarding after killin myself over the car.

 

still waiting for that close up on the peak of the hood, hook a brother up yo!

it looks great homie!

 

Ha ha ha fuck sorry mate been busy. I'll get one up ASAP as soon as I can. It ain't finished yet but cooler than a rod and lead I think.
