    Thanks for Matt Armstrong getting me involved in such a great project. I hope that this is able to give back something to the community, not only as Radicons, but as parent, uncles, aunts and big kids here at TFW.

    You know how they say that the older you get, your body shrinks? I'd like to think that Kup was a nice sized truck back in the day! :lol  His head is a modified Build Team/Wedge head. I'm not totally happy with it, but I never am! :lol 

    It left yesterday, Tony. Enjoy, guys!

    Good work. However i must agree with some and say that i do not feel the kup vibe from that mold choice.

    Great job as always, but I'd have to echo that it isn't particularly Kup-ish. Can't tell if it is due to the red or the mold itself tho....
