Al-Righty then ... here We go ... I'm having trouble getting the axle to stay ... CA isn't holding, if it isn't set by tonight think I'll pin it and use some Gator grip !!!

I had her sitting up on Her wheels looking good, I started on the side tin work ... installed that new bit of wood ... and cut rabbits on the smaller piece ... Now We paint.

That's pretty cool, maybe have some water stains under the cooler, I remember those things always leaked. The evaporator could never keep up with the condensation.

And maybe an empty coke bottle or 2 sitting on top like they were left there after someone got done drinking one.

This is looking excellent. I like the cooler, although, if this is in any place where it could get shot at; chances are they'd keep it inside. I'm thinking just inside the door in a corner; possibly on the sink side.

I was also thinking that this truck could be the "Ragin' Cajun's Cat(fish) Box" or something along those lines. I'm sure someone could come along and refine my name.

Thanks MP ... Lots of ideals the water stains are possible, I'm not sure if this one is plugged in, I'm thinking filled with ice.

I was 4 minutes too late to enter ... they changed the entry deadline ... I was really disappointed ... everyone that looked at my truck loved it ... They did let me sit it on the table ... so even though I was out of the running for a bronze ribbon ... people did get to see my creation .... :woohoo: :( (y)
