Willys Project

Post by asashaw »

I made this chassis when I was like 16 and finally last weekend had the patience to polish it. I used a jig-saw to cut it out and a regular drill and a 82 degree countersink bit for the screws. I swear dog poo makes the best aluminum polish... smells funny though. :?

More pictures to follow.

does it work better or worse depending on what the dog eats? i hope you do it by hand with gloves on, instead of flingging that crap around with a buffer. :wink:

interesting project, did you piece this together or is it some kinda kit?
The steering setup is bit off though: there are better ways to make that work.
