    Damn, that's a great replica. Play your cards right and maybe they will let you sneak it out the back door for a test run.

    NOT to make it public,........LOL... but rumored I will be able to???? hmmmmmmm
    Vic

    The fellow building it is a super person, very knowledable about you name it in cars and does some killer work. The Museum is not open to the general public and has some AWESOME cars, trucks and rat fink memorabilia,,, INCREDIBLE,,,,, and feel very fortunate for this to have happened. Its ironic that I ended up living so close to them and had always wondered why they didnt at least have a parts delivery Econoline,,,,, now I have one of my trucks in the Museum,,, not my build, but still one of mine,, Kinda Kool !!!!
