If the music to be cue’d is Planet Claire by the B-52’s I can assure you it self-loads in my brain anytime there is mention of a Plymouth Satellite.
This would be a cool base to do one of those electric builds. It’s not so rare that you’re destroying something special. I wish I had the time, space, talent, and most importantly money to build one like this for myself. I’ve been watching the youtube builds and they make it look easy. Then I look at the cost of the batteries, motors, and controllers.
Be careful of this seller…just sayin’.
She came from Planet Claire
I knew she came from there
She drove a Plymouth Satellite
A-faster than the speed of light
Planet Claire has pink air
All the trees are red
No one ever dies there
No one has a head
Some say she’s from Mars
Or one of the seven stars that shine after three-thirty in the morning
Well, she isn’t!
