LSTBM3 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 Our first Drive-in Diner. My brother Chris did all the assembly and Paint Then we added our new canopy Next we're gonna start making the interior items. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Ramfins59 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 That looks very cool. I could envision that being expanded with spaces for more cars and more people. Great job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocketman42 Posted November 14, 2013 Share Posted November 14, 2013 I might suggest that you place the canopy at a right angle to the building.Arranged as is it tends to look like a gas station.Cars at food drive ins tend to park in arching rows like at a drive in movie theatre.Nice start.Are you going to add more canopys later?
