Reply to "🚃Pics:🚃MTH PCC Shell Converted to 2-Rail SCALE Cleveland PCC Car"

I like this conversion that your friend has done James Ingram. Inspired by your post I decided to start work on an MTH PCC body that I acquired several years ago. Yesterday I found time to trim 5/16” off the lower skirts per your informative illustration. I then made a floor for my car from .080” clear polycarbonate sheet. I also made a floor from a sheet of 1/8” aluminum but that ended up a bit too thick for my application. So far that is all I’ve done. Now I need to come up with a drive for the car. I have a few options. My car body is painted in San Francisco livery. It will stay that way for the moment.

I am missing the roof top shroud around the trolley pole area. Does anyone have that gear to spare in their junk box?
