Hi all: Thought I would share with you some pictures of my scratch built 1903 Rambler. Car measures 14 inches in length, has operating headlights, functioning steering using the tiller, real leather stitched seats, 3D printed universal joints, real brass hand made springs and axle and chain driven rear axle. Rust on the muffler was created using ground cinnamon. Body is wood, fenders are aluminum.Several coats of sprayed lacquer applied.
