Laid down our 6th and final coat of epoxy on the roof. Worked on the drawbridge a little more- routered the top and sides, as well as routering the slots for the drawbridge winch cables to go through to their anchors inside the drawbridge. Starting to fill and sand it.

Our CAT generator showed up today...

I'm not tech-savvy, so we were just planning to do a $500 We-Boost to get internet where we can.

Yeah, seating tubeless bicycle tires does not have as much in common with seating tubeless motor vehicle tires, as the average lay person would assume. At one end, I've got one tire/wheel combination that happily jumps right onto the bead with a few casual pumps of a floor pump. At the other...

We've been pretty busy, but here's a quick pic/update, as we're starting to lay down the exterior epoxy:

The pic I put up two pages ago depicting just the nose of our MTVR, has now received 10 "likes", so I'll put up a pic of the rest of it: In this pic, we're getting ready to lay down the epoxy on the roof. To recap, the truck is just under 13'6" tall (we look DOWN into 18-wheel...

Lol, why would you say that? You realize that car won the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which is an endurance race? I managed a Mazda shop, and had a number of customers with nearly 400,000 miles on their rotary engines, and they still ran like new. The rotary engine in my race car was used when I got...

We haven't been to Wales...

We appreciate Italian vehicles- while in Europe, we visited Ferrari, Lamborghini, Maserati, Pagani, Ducati, and MV Agusta.
