JS23U Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 A 72 Montego GT? You bet I'll be buying one (at least)...! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1stevep25 Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Jeff, I'm digging the workbench shot. I'm interested in the '73 El Camino to do the "My Name is Earl" TV show truck. I also like the Ranchero and Grand Torino you have in process. Regards, Steve Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W-409 Posted January 28, 2014 Author Share Posted January 28, 2014 Well I did some test fitting with my Chevelle. Looks like the rear axle from Revell '67 Chevelle fits almost perfectly, only with minor modifications to original Lower A-Arms (Is that the correct name?). But that doesn't matter with my build, since I'll scratchbuild my own (It'll be a Stocker). On the front, original front axle system would fit probably good with some cutting (Haven't tried yet). Rear axle is how it will sit, front end is just mocked up without any front axle system. I'll start my build really soon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dimaxion Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Lower A-Frames , Lower Control Arms , or just A-Frames is proper . Just as a Motor and an Engine are the same . Nice progress . Keep it coming . Thanx .. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toner283 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Lower A-Frames , Lower Control Arms , or just A-Frames is proper . Just as a Motor and an Engine are the same . Nice progress . Keep it coming . Thanx .. That style of gm has upper and lower control arms for the rear suspension. A arms are for the front suspension or for some independent rear suspensions. And engines and motors are not the same. An engine runs on some type of fuel. A motor is an electrical device. i.e. an internal combustion engine has a starter motor.

W-409 Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) Thanks guys for the nice words. And thanks Tom for making this Master and Kevin for casting this into resin and sending two of them here in Finland! My dad was really happy with the quality of his '73, too. Thanks for the English words, too. Sometimes I ran into these problems, as I don't speak English as my native language... Edit: At the same time I guess I'll build a '75 Olds Cutlass as a Stock Eliminator Drag Car as well. It'll be a Curbside, though, Chevelle will be a "Full Detail".
