Just bought my dream car (custom deuce coupe)!!!

I've always wanted to get my hands on a sweet custom deuce coupe but never had the money for my dream car...

Last week I found this sweet looking "Boyd Coddington" custom deuce coupe here in St. Louis and I fell in LOVE!!!

I took a chance and offered to buy it from the guy...


And would you believe, he accepted my offer!!!

...it's now it's ALL MINE and right here at my house!!!

Aww... just kidding with you...

Actually, it is a 1:6 scale remote control replica of the "Boyd Coddington" Boydster II Deuce Coupe that he designed.

Anyway, it's a blast to drive around and has loads of working features and amazing details. Plus, I still cannot afford the real one at $90,000 and I can still keep my HHR...

You should reduce the size of the pictures.
