Nice...really nice!
...but, kinda too nice? :thumbsup:

Is it really "backyard built"??

May I ask ya to "show" us
...some of "your work"???

I'm NOT trying to be NEGATIVE (-)
...but, we have seen & examined a lot of mini-vehicles
...both DIY/backyard built & factory built
&
The design & execution of your full-size to mini-car concept(s)
...the "spot on" component choices
...the nice-n-crisp bends, in the Aluminum
...all of the super tight-fitting joints
...the near perfect rivet lines (nary a rivet "out of place" &/or any "bad holes")
...& the factory like, bolting tabs etc.

IDK :unsure:

I will post a "factory" tour tomorrow! I will take it as a compliment! I spend a ton of time researching details of the real car then search the Internet for things that are as close as I can get. All the aluminum is infact cut with a Ryobi battery jig saw. I have no metal brake, drill press, or lathe. All hand tools. I did buy a harbour freight manual pipe bender which is cool!
