maltsr Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 Hi all. I didn't like the stance of the recently re-issued gasser, so I set about lowering it. This required narrowing the rear axle, altering the ladder bars, fitting parts box tyres and radiusing the wheel arches. The front axle was also narrowed to tuck in the tyres, the suspension was changed to coilovers (spares from my recently completed '64 Chevy). Building the car in two locations resulted in the loss of a steering arm, will have to search round for it. Lowering also meant modifying the exhaust headers. Paint is Tamiya TS19 Metallic Blue and partsbox decals were used, including flames from the Revell Mercury. Thanks for looking.
Snake45 Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 Wow, what a difference! You gave the old crock a whole new look! Well done and model on!
Hmann68 Posted April 7, 2017 Posted April 7, 2017 Really clean! Gassers are the coolest, especially when done well like this!
