Typical commentary from BaT, and good pictures, crosslinks to eBay ad. I'm on an iPad, so I can't easily cross-post the pictures, but they're pretty good about maintaining advertisemets/articles even after the source expires ... so I'd imagine it will stay up past the end of the eBay auction.

Pretty cool build, but I'd imagine if it sells it'll go for big money. I especially liked the BaT author's comment at the end: "The purist in us wants to dislike this build on the presumption that it will never be used properly, that it’s overdone and out of character to the model’s original intent. Being a purist all the time gets tiring though, and the gut tells us this thing is cool."

One thing that always ruined Rovers for me is that dash. What a hideous lack luster dash. Would dislike looking at it all the time. It seems even more crude and ugly to me than a Willies.


Cheers
