1984 Eric Rupe Signature Edition - PROTOTYPE
« on: May 21, 2010, 04:58 PM »
OK...I finally finished this one...!!!

Now...does anyone know what it is... ?  *Hint*---it's not a replica...and the frame has all it's OG decals...  ;)

I will post more pics later today.  I'm posting it on all sites...so sorry if it's overkill....some guys only frequent certain sites.

OH...and many thanks to a bunch of guys for help on this one...!!!   8)

I didn't think there would be much interest in this one...except for a handful of Goose fans.

It is a 1984 Prototype.

Here is a blow-up of my avatar and another cool shot.
