It's a wooden buck glued together with Elmer's. Woodcrafter's is not necessary. There is no need for a field the armature is enough. The Dagmars make sense as long as the women wear bras. Then one day they discard them and the marquee is lit up with a new star.

That looks like a Cadillac concept car as I don't remember ever seeing one of those on the street. Or is it a custom car? Nice set of photos.

Excellent job of capturing the beauty of this Caddy, Richard! It awakens memories of the days when each make of car had its own personality. The cars today all look the same to me... Why do we need aerodynamics for 200mph when the fastest we're allowed to drive is 70?!? In these cars the ride is smooth and solid at that speed. Thanks for sharing this with us!
