n_d_fox Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Looking good mate... you should have said if you'd wanted a gold basher shell ... we could have just swapped before i started painting mine Is that a dent in the front of it ? Looks like you've been having fun with it... mines a re release gold edition from around the late 90's and yours looks like its had a harder paper round at the minute Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
