Worked on the motor for the Lil Hangman, I used the Lil Yeller block and blower then added the blower and double scoops fromthe T'rantula kit. I then combined the blower belt fromthe Lil' Yeller and the T'rantula. Wheels and tires are from the Groovy Grader. The stance isn't quite right and even looks alittle odd and the rear axle is not sitting properly. Nothing is glued at this point. The Ice Cream Mixer is something I started awhile back and then kinda lost interest in. But since finishing the JIF Hauler, starting on the Lil' Hangman, kinda sparked my interest in finishing this. The body and chassis is the Ice Cream Truck and I added a second rear axle and notched out the bed body for the second set of springs. The Lil' Mixer unit will go on the back.

Your Lil Hangman is looking pretty awesome Fred!!! I would Bag the rear axle stabilizer from the kit, and make some new rods from plastic tubing, or some good pieces of sprue....just an idea!!!

Very kool. I'm glad John was the bad guy on the axle supports, because they look wierd Fred! LOL. Other than that, it's right on. You and Scurv should have had a towtruck challenge! They are both excellent builds.
