Show us your shop vehicle!

[john1]

Hey everyone, I thought since there is a show us your shop thread, Why not show us your shop vehicles? This would give myself and others ideas as to what everyone else may be doing for self promotion.

As of right now i have no self promotion as i am thinking up ideas as i type this.

Thanks!

Currently building a Tonka Truck for a Children's museum out of fabricated aluminum and routed Sintra:

about a couple weeks in and still a couple more from completion. Nearly everything is beveled, to avoid hard corners for the kiddies to smack their heads on.

That's a nice looking truck, the tires look sweet. Post more pics when it's completed.

lol, no prob. essentially its all fab'd out of aluminum; we route the basic shapes out of .090 aluminum and the shop guys weld/bond/fill it all together. The square tubing will be its permanent base, as the client doesn't want it to be able to roll on its own...there's also 2" square tubing throughout all the doors/hood to add thickness to the body. The only sintra elements, so far, are the grill/gas cap light mounts but there's still plenty more pieces to this puzzle:
