week

My camera doesn't truely show its real color. Which is a bright blue metallic.

Here's the completed van.
Total cost... roughly between $75 and $100.00 for the new paint job.
That sure beats what autobody shops charge these days.

Heres how to do a rocker panel swap.
First sawzaw the crappy rocker job the previous owner of this truck made completely off.
Then align the replacement rocker.
Shoot in a few pop rivets to hold it in place.
Lastly do a few spot welds, till the joint is welded solid.
Prime and paint as required.

Note the new rocker looks like its miss aligned in the picture.
But actually your seeing the exhaust pipes in the background under that lower edge.

Here we were messing with a Pic programmer and demo board.

Here I was messing with servo feed back by making my own digital servos from a set of regular servos and a set of Tamiya tracks.

During this week, I also build this line follower from Micro robot.
