    ".....Cade looks like a natural in there Mike!!!! Want me to talk to Wolfgang about starting to build his USAC midget now, or wait a couple more years...."

    I think we'll hold off a little bit Dave.

    Thanks for all the positive comments guys.

    Well we are coming down to the wire on this part of the build. I sandblasted the body and spread some filler over the welds earlier this week and got a couple of coats of primer on it. I left it for the kids to sand today.

    With Cade having gone thru the sanding progress before I figured he might be a little hesitant about going to the shop today. He and Elise kind of surprised me and jumped right in on it. I think he’s getting anxious to see it done too.



    I’ll be painting it during the week and then next weekend will be the final assembly and the kids giving it some checkout time.
    NTFDAY, stovens and lamin8r like this.
    I've NEVER seen a car come from the factory that couldn't be improved.....

    Looking really neat Mike! I remember when my kids were young, and would help sand in the shop. My recent experiences include helping a grandson custom paint his bike! He did very well for a first-timer!
