yellowsportwagon Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Since I’m stupid or something I always have about 6 cars going at any time. I switch off between them. This one is a pretty simple build aside from rollbar and interior stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scratchbuilt other than wheels, tires and seat.......Engine is a 1/12 Chevy 350 I modified and resin cast. Like I said....I invested enough to buy a decent used real car!!!

yellowsportwagon Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 (edited) Ok so you did the same as I did with a Reventlow Scarab. I scratchbuilt a brass tube space frame modified the BLAH_BLAH_BLAH_BLAH out of a Strombecker Scarab body then got lost on making a DeDion tube rear suspension . So it sits 20 years later. At least it’s in the company of others in the same boat. Edited January 8, 2019 by yellowsportwagon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yellowsportwagon Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 Mark I’m not real wild about the fuel cell I made for this one. Hangs down too far. But I’m not about to try an rip it off of there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I’m not about to try an rip it off of there. I feel your pain. I have done some things, really didn't like them, but realized nobody but the rivet counters would care, so I forged ahead. I'm sure nobody will notice when they see the final pictures. As long as the over all look is awesome, which this model will be, that's what's important.
