For me, that's the money shot.

Fantastic. I love that side art. I never really looked at the MP artwork before in detail. Really nice work. Well done!  :applaud:

Thanks!  Yeah, this is a really cool design that they went with for the artwork.  I love the complex image you can create with two stenciled colors.

I'm so glad the gameplay doesn't do anything for me because that cab is beautiful and I'd have to add it to my want list if it were a little more fun.
If there's bees in the trap I'm catching em
By the thorax and abdomen
And sanding the stingers down to a rough quill
Then I dip em in ink, and I scribble a bit
But if it they wriggle then I tickle em until they hold still
Lemme say it again
In my land of pretend
I use bees as a mf'n pen

Forgive the necro bump, Spyridon, but I'm studying this build in prep for my own eventual Moon Patrol restore. Did you use solid t-molding or leather? Yours looks solid, but mine came with leather.

I went with the smooth and not the textured because that is what was on it when I got it.  However, I will say that a restore was attempted on this by a previous owner so the t-molding may have been changed and not original.  If you have leather on yours, I would probably go that route.

Thanks! That's my plan for the summer.
