I'm changing people's minds, one project at a time. I'm just glad I'm not the only one who thinks this is really cool. If you look back...

Weekly Update: Got the paint pretty much done. (don't give me too much grief about the rattle can job. Remember, It's a hunting buggy)...

Making progress: I got it about 2/3 of the way painted. Ran out of paint. I need to finish the first coat, wipe it down with mineral...
