    The Mothership AKA '08 Kiddie "Space" Crate

    Well what's the best (easiest) way to polish something like this? I was a sheet metal worker but eveything I did got painted. I suppose just a buffer wheel and a lot of elbow grease. Was on a website called http://www.r-g.de/en/,it's German but you can get change it to English and I found some...

    It's carnival time here in Holland so our maiden voyage was in the kid's parade,with three little cowboys/girls in it.Was heavy but not bad.Looking forward to a bit of summer weather so I can spray it black though.

    Well we're ready for a maiden voyage.No paint yet,gonna be waiting a while for that so it'll have to be considered finished like this for the present. This is the roof with the Led Zep sticker from hippy motors.com
