Citicar work day

I got to work on the Citicar a little bit today.

Rich, a Milwaukee area Citicar owner, came over to my house, we put my car on his trailer and took it over to his house, where he has an aluminum welder and other useful tools.

We got the parking brake working, looked at and adjusted the brakes, and got some ideas for further work.



Since we had both cars together, we had to snap a few photos..





See more photos here

Another odd thing is that my car has a white body and interior with black windows. Rich's car has a black roof and interior with a white window. We switched windows for a couple photos.

There is also some talk on the Yahoo C-Car group about a CitiCar/CommutaCar International Convention next year. Rich has an RV he's working on that may be set up as a flat-bed in back. We could carry 3 cars on back and 3 more on a trailer out to the convention!!!
