Doily Car

Wouldn't it be nice to have a car like this...?

Wouldn’t it be nice if I could fix small dents with what I do? I had annealed stainless steel wire and a gift from my dentist of some special stuff he had bought in America for straightening teeth. That was a start. I went to a repair shop and asked for a bit of old car. He brought out a mudguard, I was expecting a door, but thought, this is going to be an interesting challenge. How many of these are you going to make?" he asked. Maybe he thought I would be better than the tip. I played around giving the head-light hole an eye and used some linen thread as well as wire to give the old thing a new chance at life.
