Really nice job with the car Dave (again)! I'm guessing you pulled the V8
engine and the transmission to make room for the R/C unit. My only problem
is.... where is the R/C unit? I mean you can see the antenna clearly, but
it seems like you were able to hide the thing quite well! And you managed
to keep the convertible roof too.
The car looks quite stock with the R/C unit. Nice touch with the blonde!
She seems to be quite handy with the LEGO, and not to mention strong! ;)
I love the way you put the whole 'story' together.
So, does that mean you like 8448 supercar?
If you're coming to dinner tonight, I'm sure we would all love to see it in
the brick. Just make sure you can find a big enough shoebox to fit it into!!
Play well
John
