Well from the looks of it so far, I don't have a prayer but here is my 10T anyways. I had a lot of fun building it and in my book the fun is what it's all about, Most importantly I learned a lot doing this build and am slowly getting better, maybe someday I can get to a point closer to the rest of you here, but I'm patient and will take it one build at a time.

Never say never. You've got a sweet 10T that I'd be happy to own!!

Thanks, Romulus, that means a lot to hear, I just wish I did better with the paint fading, well just need more practice and with about 10 more chassis to work with, I may get some

Just a few days left, make sure to get your votes cast.
