Successful test flight!!! 🛻🍕
For the first time since starting this build, these wheels and axles actually moved down the road!
I only topped out at about 25 mph, but most importantly… NOTHING FELL APART! 😂
I do have one wheel that looks a little wobbly. I’m hoping it’s just the rim and not an axle issue, so I’m going to swap the spare on and take it for another run to see what happens.
All the panels are officially test-fit too! Next step is pulling them back down, trimming everything to final size, painting the frame, cleaning everything up, and getting the panels permanently installed. Then we can start getting some paint on this thing!
Still have work to do on the back ramp and rear doors, but man… I DROVE IT DOWN THE ROAD TODAY!
After all the cutting, drilling, bending, shrinking, stretching, head scratching, blood, sweet, tear, stress and figuring out as I go, seeing this old horse box actually rolling down the road again was a pretty good feeling.
One step closer to becoming a pizza trailer. 🍕🔥
