using this flat-window construction.
I was inspired by both
Larry’s recent Dome
Car build and Benn’s
Pleasure Dome build, I’ve tried it, again. I really like Larry’s
truck-springs and interior details. And, Benn’s use of the dark-grey
windscreen is quite nice for its fine-line window framing.

Hi James,
thanks for sharing your latest design here! I agree with you, that Larry built
the so far best trucks and that Benn’s dark grey windscreens might be the so far
best solution for the dome. At least in kids hands that design will be superior
agains yours now.
But what amazes me most about your car is the interior! Beginning with the blue
carpet and the nice stairs to the top. And my favorite is the door to the next
car - that is really beautiful!
Kind Regards,
Ben
