The Hardest Week EVER! Golden Nugget Exhaustion

[@daveh.354]

When they pulled this thing out of the mountains, The idea seemed to be to fix it up enough to give Ed something to cruise around in and do some wheeling. Robby's over here building a concours level 10 show car. Can't wait to see Ed's reaction.

[@3xceIIent]

Well, that is what they told Ed, but this was their secret plan all along. This is the original video where he says it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4bMqoOwaqqFmqc (I pulled this up to make another comment of my own so the link was handy)

[@AphexTwinII]

I garrantee Ed already knows he's getting it rebuilt. He'll just say thanks after a 30 minute build up. Same as Tucker.

[@Recycledhooligan]

Not the same one they pulled out the woods.totally different body. I think the frame is the same.

This one should be called fools gold, the only part that might be original golden nugget is part of the frame
