I see you have a ton of 1:24 scale cars. Are they all Sprint cup? Nice collection!!!

By the looks of your poster is Jr. your favorite driver?

BTW if you don't know already I dig the scoots too! :2thumbs:
I'd rather be riding my Aero!

Thanks for the nice comments !!

Yes , there is 9 sprees in the picture , they all run with the exception of one which i have been using as a parts bike

All of the 1/24 cars are from the early 90's , at that time i was a huge nascar fan and yes JR. was my favorite driver , i have not watched a nascar race in several years , i couldnt even tell you who won the championship this year

Stay tuned for my next project ...

Could you post more pics of the ARMY Bike ??? Did you paint the star or get a decal ? I just bought a spree today $100.00 Not running and if I can get it running I think it will also be joing the ARMY .

Trae,

Great looking Scoots, really like those whitewalls on the rat-rod! Is it an '87?

I followed the link to the website but it looks like whitewalls only come in 3.0".

Are they 10" x 3.00" and if so how did you get them to fit? I thought the biggest the Spree could take was 2.75"...

Thanks,
George
