I weighed the copper car today. 224 pounds heavier--that's a lot of copper considering we were only able to use about 50%-60% of the sheets when all was said and done.

Flipper35,

I imagine we could use Lexan. Might make a pretty cool car.

FFR428,

Thanks for your kind words.

Red Era,

Thank you for your kind words. I think the different stripes would really, really be cool. Now if I could just figure out how to weld the dissimilar metals together.

LwCwb,

Aluminum chassis fantasies have crossed my mind on several occasions.

Joe,

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for the kind words!

David
