2021 End of Summer Heat

OK so it’s the end of summer and the temp is slowly going down. That means it’s time to start building again.

I like my fish belly car so what about building more?

Started with Two and it grew to Five cars. Three = 6 footers and two =  4 footers.

Went and welded stake pockets on the outer frames.

Went and practice welding spots to make it look like there is rivets along the car.

Assembled the car to see how it looks before welding it up.

After all the cars are welded and stacked out of the way I started final assembly.

Time to paint to see how it looks.

I think that is so awesome that you got this going for many years now you’re living the dream for the rest of us
