    This is way off topic, but I'm dying to go look at it.. maybe next week! A full scale FED replica made out of wood and pvc?! Pretty cool but wow, could maybe make a real one for a little more money?

    Guys with REAL cars get questioned as to why they have one..........that just proves someone had too much free time and he's looking for someone with WAY too much spair money. Nice craftmanship none the less.

    I don't get it. You could buy a real one for less than that.

    Dood. C'mon. Probably not sturdy enough to even hang form the ceiling.

    Can't show it outside on a hot day, the pvc ch***is'd droop to the ground. Maybe you have to flip it over every couple days to keep it straight.
