Some nice work and detail with the scratch building, you even added a little chain. I have a stupid question for ya tho, but what is a "swamp cooler",i never understood what they were for? I didnt even know that was the name of them until I saw you post it. I've seen them on old lowriders but never understood their purpose. I mean from the looks of yours, it looks like its some sort of way to cool the interior off but then why not just roll the windows down?
