This is the beginnings of my Beer Wagon Wheelstander. I am still gluing and cutting. I propped up the parts to take a few photos. I got rid of the chain drive, filled the front end, and have been working on the roll cage. Still quite a bit to do.

Not much of an update, but I have the engine almost complete. I think it's tall enough, plus I want to keep some of the Beer Wagon stock parts, injectors & headers, etc. I sanded the rivet heads off of the body panels and smoothed the roof and back of the cab. Still a bunch to do.

Thanks Bill! Yeah, I had General Jerry Lee in mind when I started this one. I thought of building his truck but I had a couple of Beer Wagons sitting around and they are dear to my nostalgic heart. I never liked the chain drive though. I hope to have some paint done as soon as the weather cooperates. ;D

Neat idea, and it's looking great! It makes me wonder about putting the drivetrain from the Boothill Express in a Beer Wagon,

Brian that sounds like a good idea. I never liked the chain drive of the beer wagon. That is how the wheel stander idea started, plus I like wheelstanders, have since I was a kid.
