Tyrone, you're off to a cracking start man. B)

This should be an interesting build, and looking forward to seeing your approach at the "blower motor".

Good to see you're having a crack at the chassis, 100%......I know you won't disappoint man. :) ;)

The chassis is looking good Tyrone, can't wait to see more!. Henry, this is going to be Tyrone's first 100% scratch-built chassis & his first blown car, & I'm sure he will blow us away with it! (pun intended!)

second blown car... I did a blown mustang Skull Gear about 2 years ago....

Tyrone i noticed that you dont have tubing where the four link brackets are mounted. your brackets should be mounted to the chassis on the tubing. I hope you can understand what im trying to say heres the pic I noticed it in.

simple fix just put two pieces of tube in where the brackets are and mout the bracket to the tube and you'll be set. This will make your chassis stronger it will also make the rear end less likely to break off during handling. Keep up the fine work.
