A sneak peek at our addition and the car behind it all!



My husband bought the fenders and hood to a 1947 quarter midget race car (at least that is what we were told it was, but we are not 100% sure) He had a friend fabricate a frame, and used some axles and tires he had to make the little car complete. It doesn't have an engine, but it looks like it is ready to go! He wanted to display this little car in front of the store and let kids sit in it. I have been working on him for an addition to the store for a while now as we are running out of room. When he said he was going to put this car outside, I told him it would get wet, and that he should build an addition around it. He liked that idea, and so began the project of adding on to Log Cabin Antiques. The little car just got its paint job and is ready to come home. The addition is going to take a bit longer, but hopefully it will be done by late summer or early fall.
