Friends of the .04 Trolley
Restoration Progress
The .04 at the end of the initial contract with painted new canvas on the roof and look carefully and you can see a trolley pole mounted. The body is pained with numerals added. The fender is now mounted and "Glolden Glow" headlight and makers are illuminated. Photos Mike Pannell |
