Next year, in October, we are having our Washington DC WBCCI Unit Installation Rally down here in Norwich, NY. You need to attend with this very cool project. Will you be done by then? We might be having a Forums Rally here around the Sherburne Pageant of Bands June 5-8 here as well. What do you have envisioned for Interiors.

The two end cones were attached to the frame with clecos.
Carlos -
Beautiful work as usual. Is the wheel well going to end up in the door area, or will it be in the aft end piece? From your balancing act, it appears that you'll have to move a few outriggers, but I couldn't match that picture up with the "shell on" picture to see exactly where that was
On edit: I forgot you already mentioned that this is going to be a rear entry Carry on with the cool project.

As far as the axle goes, I'm not sure yet where it should go (and am waiting 'til next week for it to arrive). I think I will get this top part more or less done, then find the balance point, then take the top off (it's pretty light), remove the center piece of plywood, flip over the frame and put the axle on the easy way, attach the last two outriggers, put on the belly pan, flip it again and put the top back on... I'll have a better idea where to put it on the next one I suppose without the extra hour or two of take off and put on. I'm guessing the axle will be centered more or less at the leading edge of the rear cone.

I'm still thinking on the interior... maybe some industrial linoleum on the floor, or tiles of plywood...
I removed the rear window to make room for the door, the tail-lights too, then filled in the various holes and dents with patches. I think there will be 14 in all. I am recycling the metal panels I took off the outside for the new parts.
Carlos, I don't know if I think your a genius or insane... I am continuously impressed with the way you think totally outside the box. This is a cool project and I hope Rob has convinced you to attend one the WDCU rallies with your movie mobile. The WDCU usually strings up a bed sheet to show movies at their rallies, but this Movie pod would be one step further. In April we will be having the Cherry Blossom Festival Rally just outside Washington DC. Maybe you could attend. If you are not a WBCCI member, well I am sure an exception could be made. If the few rule book quoters object, well, I'll pay you dues.
Are you going to only use film, or will you also use a video projector? Maybe Colin has another trailer that you could cut length wise to open up into a screen.
Keep up the good work. I truly hope we will be able to meet soon.
