Man, that turned out sweet. It looks like it took some time, but turned out sharp.

I'm not usually a fan of camper shells, but I like that one a lot. The windows, and the roof line to me make that one a winner.

the paint is pretty close. as for the camper shell its needed because of his tools he uses it for work.
