Mocking up the car to review scale and dimensions. 
these are not the wheels. nor is the dog house the engine. they are place holders for viewing..
we also spread the wheels out to see what that looked like. we like the “shorty” version
we also tried on an engine, but decided it was too heavy and a lot more work to make a cool engine
No Exposed Engine..
Hood with Exposed Chrome Headers like this car
we also received our first load of metal and have begun to erect the structure to lift the car

 END OF PIPE Rope Mechanism
a note previous reflects “no pulley on end of pole”   
the pulley was a concept thought and could not be worked into budget.
the idea behind the pulley was to be able to have the pull rope out of the way when planning for an event to have access through this area without the rope being an intrusion.
some type of “Hook” that the rope can be hung on is the idea we are working on.
Hook #1
a rod welded up top with a slight hook up to hang rope on.
blue strap is representative of big rope
Hook #2
a metal cut out so nothing is “Poking out”
