 North Pole Mailbox Trike - Tim Nolan

Neither sleet nor low-octane fuel will stop this delivery trike!Image hosted by Photobucket.com

 
Yet another kitbash temptation from Retro Hobbies, I couldn't help but attack Roth's Mailbox Chopper and give it some slight mods to build one of Santa's kool vehicles.  This kit is basically built straight from the box, with the addition of some rare Richard Carroll rear tires rolling on rims of milled aluminum with plastic inserts. The front ski is made from some sheet aluminum.

Pearl white paint was achieved by shooting it all in HOK white basecoat, with clear coats containing green and red pearl powders.  Custom Christmas
