This reminds me a lot of the current yahoo news story of the Alaskan couple who converted a pick up truck into an exact replica of a Radio Flyer sled!

Enjoyed your show last Friday in the Farmland, Los Angeles. You are quite creative.

Great slide!. Here is another idea as to where this was takein. On the very far right of the photo just above the light blue car – it looks likes stones. If so – then it would be by the sign that says Santa Fe Dam next to the spillway.

Not only is there a corrugated car, but also a Model T in the background.

Sure looks as if the knob on the hood would be the “doorway” into the engine area… Instead of a pop-up hood, you just turn the knob and voila, the door opens…. How nifty is that??? We used to have a shed made out of the corrugated metal… who would have thought a car too!
