R/C wheels and tires in the one inch size are perfect for 1/16th. I widened the wheels from that Nomad kit and made Jeep bolt patterns. Here's how the one inch R/C tires fit those. I know these aren't for you but they do have a wide assortment of tires in one inch size.

I can't recall ever seeing that kit either, but man it looks like it'll be very cool built by you!

I love saving glue bombs, and a '63 Riv is one of my favs, so I can't wait to see it!

Looking so good, so sumptuous! I hope you'll have the picnic tables open with a jar of mustard? -
Those were remarkably accurate little models, and I see you adding "glass", nice!

So with the rear end installed and the engine and transmission mounts added, I could make a driveshaft. I had this one in the junk pile, looks like it's from a Thunderbolt kit. I file near the ends because it's easier to hold that way, before I cut the ends off. I leave the thinned out parts attached so they push into aluminum tubing. So now I have a quick and easy driveshaft of the proper length.

Using parts box stuff I found a cool boss 302! But why did I choose an engine with a seam down the oil pan?? Oh well, I cut it off because the front sump wont clear the dropped suspension. And I had to add styrene scraps to build back material removed by cutting. So now that I have the rear sump and oil pan reversed, I can see if those motor mounts work.

Nice work, and cool concept! -
That paint finish turned out great!

Body color would be correct for stock. Interior looks fantastic! It looks better than AMT ever imagined it could! The whole car does.
