It's haunting my dreams

Post by astro »

Imagine the possibilities...

LINQUE

I have to many projects on the go (well, just one, but it's been in the works for over a year), but I'm seriously tempted by this... I could make this into a compstang, maybe even with an original colour combo...

nice. the small picture of the front looks alright in the listings then you scroll down and ONOES!

The blue refinish is pretty well done

i think his definition of "well done" is rather skewed.

that's been listed before, but it had gold paint all over the body and a custom (i.e. horrendous) pickguard on it. it was also listed as a 60s one first time round if i remember.

Go ahead, Robroe... although I want this, my finances and my time can't justify going through with it. I'm sure you'll turn this beast into a thing of beauty.

Haha i've been watching that one on ebay myself. But if you ask me the bidding now is above what it's worth.
