The last you'll see of this Charger

Ok, so I got this idea to build up this super modified car, and sell it on ebay. Just to see what people would pay for it.
I had stretched a Micro Speed chassis to fit a Zip Zap body. Painted the chassis. Dual celled, and FET modded it. Then painted a body to top it off. It was nearly ready, and I had only taken one pic. Then I went back to fine tune it, and make it perfect, when the body had fallen on the floor, and I stepped on it, not realizing it was down there.
So this is the only evidence I have of that body, and it's a shame too, because you can barely see the flames, and I had thought they had some of the best flow of any flames I've done.
After all the time I put into it, I decided to keep this car. It wears the Camaro body now, since I broke my last Charger.

pimp, I know how you feel. I had just painted a custom convertible supra that I spent mad hours on. I put the last coat of purple pearl on, and set it on my desk to dry. Not even ten minutes later, my wife walks by my desk and accidently knocks it to the floor. (sniff,sniff)
BTW: I would have bid on that ride. You got mad skillz......

It wasn't that big of a deal, because I was planning to sell it. So I just had to find something else to sell.
What's biting me in the ass is that I only got that one crappy picture of it.

And you would have lost the auction. $30 for a custom chassis, internal dual-cell, mosfetted car with a badass custom paintjob? Dude, I don't know what you're smokin', but I sure as hell don't want any. There's probably about $30 cash into that car as it sits, which implies that you put no value on the time and skills involved here. I'm sure you meant reasonably well, but do the math before you throw out little price tags, so you can avoid insulting people. Maybe you should just say, "that's a sweet fuckin' car dude", if you're too damn cheap/stupid to attach a reasonable value to someone's work.

Tanks for gettin' me back there Hue35. I decided to let it lay, but I'm glad someone had the balls to say something.
...and your absolutely right he would have lost.

Yep $30 would be a steal on something like that.
I have some of CD's mods and a paint job and after playing with the cars and seeing the paint job in RL I can say that his pics suck and do his work no justice(well not that the pics suck but you know what I mean).
I have seen a duel selled ZZ with just charger, TX and chassie(no motor,gears,body) sell for $40+.
Well it sucks that you steped on it but I know thats just gonna make you bang out something else that will just as dope
