Glamour Shot

I feel the need to post this picture I took a couple days ago. The R60/5 looks great in every setting, but this pic in particular I like.

The RD 350 48 Hours Later

Well well well, a couple big cans of elbow grease and look what I’ve got. A nice shiny vintage 2 smoker. And it’s a 6 speed!
