Cannon Ball Taildragger turns a corner!!

The Cannon Ball turns a big corner...

I finished the mock up on the taildragger last week,so it was finally time to blow it apart. It was just in time, cause I tired of building knowing I still had to pull it all apart and I needed a boost to help me get this thing finished!

Doing the body work ****s, but I like getting to this point in a project with the final welding, painting and ***embly. When you put a part on, you know it's staying on!

Here's a link to the last mock up thread:

Like to see it done just like you would, good job so far.

 

Yup, original '41 Studebaker.
Thanks.

 

Congrats on turning the corner. Can't wait to see the finished job, looks sweet so far!

 

Hey Thomas,
Does the blue color on that paper hanging under the signs look familiar? Hmmm...wonder what's in the pictures?

 

I'm sure it says, "how NOT to build a car"

 

Very nice, can't wait to see it finished.

 

ok you had all day yesterday to work on it .. is it back together yet?

 

Yea, yea, that's it...glad I didn't take any tips from that frikin hacker! haha

I ended up taking off too much time drinking beers, then I was gone for a few days. Maybe it'll be done by next week if you'd get your sorry *** down here and lend a hand!
