    There's a guy in the Vancouver, Wa area who mills some from aluminum. He's usually at the swap meets, but they're over until the fall. He has been at the GG deal in Puyallup, but haven't seen him there the last couple years. I'll contact a buddy who lives down there and see if he has a number for the guy.

    As for lighting, you'll probably have to use the lighted plate bolts that a company named DEI (Design Engineering Inc.) make. They're called Lite'n Boltz, P/N 030301, available at Summit and many other hot rod part dealers. Or any other kind of light you like.

    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    Thumbs up Gives me an Idea!

     



    Uncle Bob,
    Thanks for the info. I think I may look around at the parts stores and swap meets and maybe I can find some matching frames and make my own. I have a friend in the welding/fabrication business who is a semi-old school car guy. He has a tig and super good.
