GRiN Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 The front from the Lindburg Topialino (sp) may work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

disconovaman Posted June 17, 2018 Share Posted June 17, 2018 I built a transvrse straight axle for mine, made it alot more simple. I wish I had the build pics of it but they're buried somewhere in the cloud. And the car is in my brother's garage under an empty fish tank.

MrObsessive Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 WOW! I'm not much into Gassers but I LIKE that! I gotta ask though...............WHERE did you get the steelies for the rear?? I'd like to have at least one or two to use as a spare in a possible 1/12 project. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used the custom wheels from the 1/12 69 camaro and the steel wheels from the 1/16th 55 Chevy. I sanded the backs off the 69 camaro wheels and dropped the steel wheels into the outer ring from the 69 wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dino246gt Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Love that gasser, sweet! Yes Darin, you should be able to scratch build one in this scale fairly easily, but I'm sure they're available 3D printed already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ssnova Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 If you want to raise the rear up just flip the rear end. Instead of having the rear end on top of the leaf springs it's on the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
