Great build! You are making some good progress on your "duck" from the pictures. Lots of details are included that a lot of people just don't put in. Keep it up, I'm waiting to see how it turns out in the end.

Frank, they still use these in a place called Hot Springs, Arkansas. It is famous as Al Capone and the early gangsters would vacation there. They have about 6 of these used a water tour bus. Some very good pictures of the side view showing the wheels. cheers Blake

We even have them here in Hawaii. I wish they wouldn't paint them yellow, though. (I would consider paying to ride in one if they were olive drab, but not yellow). I may not have a LOT of standards, but there is that one. Ha. -Mike
