Fabricating the door out of square tubing 🧲

The long-awaited door fabrication….the first step was to sheath in the entire section where the door will be. The second step was to cut out the shape of the door opening. Now today’s task is to fabricate an inner framework using square tubing 🧲

The final step will be to sheath the framework with sheet metal

The inspiration for this build is the 1930s Diamond T Texaco Doodlebug Tanker Truck. The Texaco Doodlebug (also called the Diamond T Doodlebug) was a futuristic American tanker truck of the 1930s. The vehicles were streamlined and highly aerodynamic. The overall shape, a flattened half-cylinder rounded at the front and tapered at the end, has been described as a “pill” or “bread loaf”. The passenger cabin was blended into the body, and there were no fenders, hood, cowl, or running boards. The windshield was compound curved glass, quite advanced for the time. It stood only 6 feet (1.8 m) tall, very short for a tanker truck then or since.
