I recently bought a huge lot of stuff from a fellow member on this site. There was some really cool stuff that I got. Here is one of the projects I built combining some of the parts I got with some parts I already had. I think it came out really cool.

Hi all.
I received this Green Pan off Bormac who won it from the 10talk auction.

Here are some pictures of my latest build. AE factory powder coated Neon Green chassis.

Much later and I still hadn't seen it! I figured that avatar came from your gallery. :P That thing is sweet Brian. It would be the pride of any collection. Especially mine! :lol:
