I am just not a Player on the Quick change for this Car... For the Bugeye...
absolutely.... but the Camaro is a Interim project not a life long
obsession... I have to keep that in perspective... sometimes it's hard...
but it simply is about the Two Club for now... then I can come home and Play
with the Bugeye.... ( which has no eye's by the way )
