Hydraulic Model Cars | Experiment |

Procedure
I put my models together using the instructions as well as customizing the way I want my model to be. I added more hopper springs and motors so the models will move side to side.
I started putting the body together first, then the hoppers, then the motors, cables next, and finally, springs fro the hopper springs. Some days I worked for eight hours straight, other days, three hours at a time. On weekends, I worked all day on the models. I still needed more tires, hoppers, springs, cables, motors, batteries, and switchbox if I wanted to put both models cars together by the science fair date. I am displaying the 1962 Catalina and the 1964 Impala models for this science fair project on January 18, 2001 at Lake Valley Navajo School.
