Rapid and exciting progress is being made on the 451, which is now in the Diesel shop in Barn 2. You'll want to see the pictures displayed here on the Member's Photo Gallery, posted by Pete Pedersen.
And in breaking news, I just got word from Dick Lukin that he had made arrangements with a sawmill in Zion he's familiar with, and arranged for white oak of the appropriate size for new saddles for the 451 to be rough cut. Frank Sirinek and Dick then drove to the sawmill earlier today and bought the wood, which by the time you read this should be in the car shop, ready to mill. I can't promise you we'll have a post every day, but maybe Pete will! And note how Frank, Mike, and Dick are all going out of their way to speed progress on our new cars. Wow!
Anyhow, money is $till needed to keep the pot boiling. Charlie Strong is working full-time to get this job done and will do a superb job, as he did on the 749 (to be unveiled soon!) So please donate to the Electric Car Painting Fund if you can! Thanks!!!
