There is more cheddar in that wraith than in his comp truck..
I'm confident of that.
But this thing does fly nicely.. Can't wait to see it in person..
 
Very nice.
How easy was it to get Garcia to fit in the seat properly?

Wow, time for a update!!! Jerry wasn't the easiest to fit in, but well worth it. Had to heat him up and bend him and cut some pieces and rebond them with windshield adhesive. The JK is done and I'm building a new Jeep!!! My dream version of my old XJ as a Class 3 rig to run with Rick next year:mrgreen:. Thanks to Rick at SuperShafty.com and Lue better known as MattZilla"thumbsup" Stay tuned......
