I LOVE IT

Just needs wheels so it can be a land, sea, air vehicle!

Never mind!! I see it DOES have wheels!!

Even my wife says I need one, so it must be good!

He should get with GP or Horizon to get this thing made.... they'd jump at this design.

If he wanted to sell them he should have probably had them ready to go before "unveiling" this very cool idea. The copycats are in motion I can tell you.

Status: offline 		Greg, can't wait to read your review of the Hydro Foam (I've liked your other reviews). I may wait for the "official" kit from Michael Connally, but I'm still interested to see how this kit performs.
