Slim Louis Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 (edited) People have been telling me that the wheel bases on the GM intermediates were shortened frpm 115" to 112" in 68, but did I listen? NOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Finally got it to where I can live with it! Freds wheels and seat, PPP tires, AMT 66 442 chassis(115"),Cage and chassis modifications from the speed shop and Louis Brothers Race Team shop, body from the Super Stocker kit. Tamiya racing white paint, Pontiac 400 Motor from the Revell Firebird kit, fits real well, headers and all, yay! Will add a Mica Blue and Red racing stripe full length, decals are ready! This weekend for sure! Ya'll did say 6 pics right? 640X480? Right?

Slim Louis Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 Thanks for the advice there, Evilone, I appreciate it! I got a car with the stripes you describe, plus remember these are short track race cars! They look good when there a little out andish! Here's the example I have in mind: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slim Louis Posted October 18, 2008 Author Share Posted October 18, 2008 Doesn't have a gauge panel or ignition box either. It's not done yet. Guess thats why I put it in the "It's not done yet" section. Thanks for noticing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
