Since I am still plugging away on this darn hot rod, it brought back memories of building this one. Lots of toothpicks and rubber bands involved though. The hood and trunk open with use of rubber bands and the doors open and close as well. The windshield wipers work and the glove compartment will open and close too. It’s actually very cool. Rubber bands are also used for the windup motor and traction on the tires for movement. The Dream Cabriolet

Oh I love color. So beautiful
working with the rubber bands sounds like a nightmare
Wow! It’s cool. Do you have a vid clip of how it works? I love the color purple. 
Thanks so much. I decided to have fun with this one! @ThaoNguyen

You’re welcome. As long as I’m happy, that’s all that matters.
I’m into cabriolet cars—it’s probably obvious from my profile photo. 
This is one cool looking car 
and the color choice is so unique. It looks amazing @Nita_Davis
You are correct @valleyggoo

Very smart idea
Ahhhh I love the colour! How cool is that! I don’t think I’ve seen a purple car around. 
Thanks so much @Suzanne_Jones . I decided to go a bit off the beaten path with this one. I have a lot of different color combos that go well together so I use them often. I needed a bit of change…LOL!

Thanks so much @serenebliss_23 . I don’t have a video of the car running. That little piece you see missing on the rear end broke and it has something to do with the ‘motor’. Just a pretty paperweight now…LOL!
