You are not too far off - I will be using the 'dead air space' by hanging the nose of Amanda's Jr from the ceiling with her back wheels on a work bench that I built that connects to a 52&quot; Tool Cabinet. Need the floor space to get the golf cart over the trailer axles, and this configuration will accommodate the 3rd Jr when Danny starts! I'll take a pic tonight....

Can't forget the Golf Cart.

Absolutely! The golf cart was definitely one of our best purchases - and now that it is all spiffed up with the paint, wheels, lights &amp; stereo system we can cruise in style when we aren't pulling Jr Dragsters around!

This is still a work in progress DC, but you get the idea - I built an 8' ramp to get Amanda's rear wheels up on the bench. Then I'll have a rail mounted to the ceiling from which I can hang the front suspension. We'll brace the outside of the roof to make sure it stays put! Plan to paint the work bench to match the trailer interior, and the little fuel &amp; oil compartment door on the right to match the tool cabinet. The tasks never end!

Made significant progress this weekend! Picked up the car from the chassis shop with it's new helmet bars, and also picked up the body after the graphics were done.

Amanda's first word when she saw the body work was 'AWESOME'! [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/grin.gif[/img] We surprised her with the extra artwork on the car, and the super sparkle silver.

That's on the body of the car, we 'revised' it by using the fancy cursive letters and the 'jewelry' decals! If she could figure out how to put a tiara on top of the roll cage.....
