LeMon’s Build part 2

Lybiansheader

So here is Part 2 of the build. I’ll call this phase…Color and Trim. Time to theme out the Poopra. Here is a fancy concept sketch of the final design. Sorry Doc, no disrespect, but we are doing our best with what we have to work with. Which is ten dollars cash, some coins and a lot of empty beer cans. Oh and the White Castle Slider boxes. They will come in handy somewhere.

So, are you pysched? If not, the hell with ya, here we go…….

We can’t afford a stainless steel body like Doc, so we used something that has the qualities vinear has to wood. Really thin and cheap but know will know the difference, kind of like IKEA. Out comes the aluminum foil. Oh yeah!

Sweet we now have a shiny new car. Bring out the steel wool and lets give it a brushed finish. There is no skimping on the details here. We are designers and we are picky about the little things. The base is done, now it is time for the time traveling hardware.
