Brian, this build is finishing up nicely! That checkerboard tank insert is perfect.

I could see a Final Photo on a busy street, in a city, parked by a curb!

Here's some musical inspiration from Joni Mitchell to bring it on home...Big Yellow Taxi.

Thanks I appreciate that . Haven't thought about final pics yet but you have given me some ideas.
 
Work on the paint on the kid hauler this weekend was all for not. Had some paint lift when taking the vinyl squares off after painting the black over the white.

Guess I rushed it and should have let it dry for a few days longer. So now sand it back down and try again.

Just need to finish up few things like hooking up the lights adjust the three speed and couple other things that probably forgetting about.
 
That look killer!
 
Pretty much finished wiring the lights. I am going to use this battery since the lights are 12v.
