bobafett:

Well it's been a while  :LolLolLolLol:

And erm.....

1. I'm still alive
2. this is not a premium build
3. I purposely left the buttercups in the grass as I thought they matched the text in the padset
4. No.... I still haven't stained my fences (fook off Joff)

 :LolLolLolLol:

But seriously...........

This started life as a complete survivor - and I loved her as such.... but...... I had an itch (no i didn't catch something off Joff)

I wanted to pimp her just a little and make a mini version of my 84 cali  :laugh:

Big thanks to Joff for a very tedious bit of resto ( you know what you did mate  ;) )

So here's the final product - some will like, some will loath but hey-ho..... it's a bit of fun (the OG survivor parts are safely packed away do not fear !  ;D )
