LMAO RC . Hell Quartzsite was a ghost town Sunday when we went thru. Way different than last month with 300,000 snowbirds. If they were still there I'd most likely have gotten lost .

Yep, all Henry steel; not trying to hi-jack this thread but I did consider my 16 order in orange but opted for the blue. The 40 is painted a limited run Plymouth Prowler Orange FWIW. Very close to the GM oranges.

Thanks for the compliments.

Well you've sparked my interest. I'm going to have to look into Radiator Springs. I've never heard of it.

Edit: OK I looked it up. The wife wanted to do a Grand Canyon trip so it looks like we're adding Radiator Springs to that trip. Thanks for the info.
