    I wonder why I can't seem to finish my Flatty.

    I picked up a Bantam TC-3 from another forum member that was fairly local to me.
    Here is the start of the project, right now all I want to do is get repainted, registered and maybe some new(er) tires. Then sometime down the line, after I finish my flatty, build one of those niffty tent toppers thingys for it. I really like the way it sits now, it's level with my '73 that has 33" tires on it with the drop hitch that's on the draw bar, and I think it should sit about right with my flatty... Any way here are some pictures.

    After I wire brushed the loose paint off the one side I was hoping this was going to be good enough, but it wasn't. So later I'll move it and sand it all down.

    After I wirebrushed, primed and started painting it black with a brush. I'm going to rattle can all the nooks and cranies that I can't seem to get into with a brush.

    More updates as they come.

    Nice! It looks like it is in great condition, a little paint and it'll be good to go :)

    Yes that is my plan.

    I wouldn't quite call it a buggy, but yes it will primarily go behind that.
