Shoot the Skull

I was thinking of making him a clown and using glow-in-the-dark artwork? I just do not think there is a market for scary clowns.
 
Yes, it is chain driven. This is a conversion of Shoot the Bear from 1949.

I have been at this for a while.

Power transformers only found on Seeburg equipment. I may or may not have enough. I am far from electrical work. That cab is a mess.
 
I am going to re-glue the plywood on the bottom. The wood is solid there and it should work. The top, I am going to cut a strip out and add a donor piece. The side look like they can be repaired/bondoed for a good finish.

Subscribing. These are a lot of fun to watch.
 
I have been busy with the paint stripper, glue and bondo. I cut out the damaged portion on the top of my cab. I will get a donor portion and dowel that together soon. I have a way to go to get this painted before the snow flies.

Say Hello to 3256. I was able to get the paint of my serial number tag. I can still faintly see all of the lettering denoting what this once was. I had to rub the solution in by hand. Any sandpaper or rough surface would have destroyed what little I was able to save.

I cut off about 4" of the top and biscuited a donor in place. I will let this dry and apply another sanding/coating for my final coat.
