yeah dude you have a picture of a 300ZX. But the 280ZX shown above is the 2+2 model, not the 2-seater. :P

Yeah, I know about the 2+2...

 

2 seater:

whoops! Thnx for catching that! I spent about an hour an a half on it total, with four fixes in editing. I'm shure one or two things slipped through the cracks. I'll work on more later, Alt's will be one of the final things i touch on.

Diaclone, anyone?

 

Hound is based off a Mitsubishi J59 Jeep (where J59 is the frame type)

 

The Walther P-38 was the standard issue handgun amongst German officers in WW2.

 

Also, RID Ultra Magnus was based off a prototype garbage truck from a car show in 1999 (or 2000) in Japan.

Still see quite a few Fairlady Zs on the road today.. saw the Stingray once.. and I've also seen Ironhide/Ratchet in person too.. talk about box on wheels.. :roll

 

Pretty cool though. They have the 'Jazz' and 'Wheeljack' cars in a museum now if my memory serves me.

on one site it claimed the fairlady z is the best selling sports car to date, might have been limited to certain cars, not shure. but they have been going on now forever, but I think the mustang and others would be higher on the sales list...
