Title: Nos Hoffman Big Daddy FINISHED :-)
Post by: CD17 on June 05, 2012, 04:07 PM: I got offered a complete Nos Hoffman Big Daddy build & couldn't turn it down 8)

All the rare & correct parts, most Nos the rest VGC

I don't want to sound like Costa, but this really is probably going to be my last build :coolsmiley:

Even though it was probably the only Nos Big Daddy left unbuilt, I had to get it built 8)
