New workbench
just finished mounting up a ( 56?) Plymouth Dash , for the backsplash of my work bench. I mounted a 2 bulb set up behind it also.
I picked it up last summer at the Monroe swap meet. I also hung a stored 4 bulb fixture & made it adjustable to provide more light & ease of changing the fluorescent bulbs

I've tried to do away with most of my benches, and use a roll around work cart instead. In my place, home and the shop, all the benches did was collect clutter.... Replaced them with shelves, can fit more clutter on shelves then benches!!!!!!

Lucky Trucks & Happy Haulers
Here's my first project on the NEW Workbench,
I'm making em for a local Art Gallery.
they're made with 1/2" exterior plywood, sheet brass, Pennies, the bed is an old yellow wooden folding ruler. They take a day to make, all from scratch.
My dad was an International Harvester Dealer back in the 60's.
So this Happy Hauler is kinda a tribute to him.
This one measures 6" x 2 3/4".
Tomorrow w/ daylight I shoot the others, teardrop trailer, one Hauling a Yellow bulldozer, one with a bicycle on the back. They all are animated ( the tractor front wheels swivel )
I chose Lucky Trucks for the name because, " your Lucky to buy one ! "
thanks for lookin.

For sure!! I recall Jim's torsion bar suspension on at least one of his builds, but I'm not sure which one! Maybe the Track T?? He's a talented builder.
