Tubing the tub wagon

Progress continues on my grandsons bathtub based wagon. Tin work is progressing well, floor, trunk, tubs are all fitted. I will post more as the project progresses.

 

cool

 

Hey, I thought pro street rods were frowned on here?
Neat looking kid's car! Nice work!

 

It is just a fun diversion from the stalled 44 dodge truck project and we have been busy making tin kits for some protrucks thatare being built locally.

Another week or two and he will be ready to roll, but will need snow tires for awhile yet

 

I thought those were enormous clecos...until I relaized that the sheet metal work was for a tiny car!

 

Ha, same here!

This is looking great though!!

 

Too cool and some nice sheet metal work. I see he has already perfected his "cruiser look".

 

Those clecos would be approaching beer can size! For a scale perspective, the tubs are 9" diamiter

 

progress continueson my grandsons tub wagon, keep them little dudes interested, they are future car guys

chassis front end and steering stuff

 

Wow this is really cool!!!

 

Outstanding, lucky kid!!

 

The progress continuess. Body will go for paint later this week. Seat and belts have been fitted. Trunk hinges and latch work. now to decide what colour, his fibrglass 41 Willys will be an electric spark blue, so blue is out, grandma says bright so it can be seen while she drags him around the neighbourhood, I'm undecided

 

I just thought he was a really big guy.

 

Tub paint is done, body mounted. Just lights and poll handle to finish it off.









Need some pinstriping or something, not sure what to do next!
