    Love it how you don't waste 20 years of video on unscrewing a bolt or welding a part. Great job! Can't wait for the sequel! Happy new year and Hi! from Réunion Island, Indian Ocean. Keep up the great job!

    Are those seats and cup holders heated ? Lol.. just kidding.. it's a great build. This is the best part because it is so close the visual is there... but it is also when it is fun to slow up. Look it over tweak it here tweak it there.. add an idea of some little cosmetic change and or additions... just taking the time to enjoy the final little touches and do it right. Looking forward to seeing what's next as it all comes together. 😎👍
