Mach1revo Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 This is a long term project that i pull out when i get board. Its the Revell 32 sedan thats been chopped (my first top chop) and channeled and the grille shroud has been sectioned and pie cut. The frame has been z'd up front. The grille and hood are now one piece and will hinge upward like a normal cars. I am unsure where to go with it from here as it was going to be a rat rod but now i think it needs some exotic drivetrain and IFS suspension. Any suggestions or comments welcome.

72 Charger Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 That looks good i would still rat it .I like the z,d frame the hood is different not sure if it works with that body tho just my 2 pence Dobbie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jantrix Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 It's a model. If you want it to have an exotic engine and IFS and still be a rat rod by all means, make it so! See what I mean? Mine even has a Corvette rear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazyrichard Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 well def different , i really love the uniqueness where you are at now i would def. put some modern suspension on it and paint it gloss , that front just gives me that opinion ratting it with that front .. not sure , but hey i might be wrong just basing my opinion on that pic .. if you want to rat it just go for it very curious on the progress from here great potential Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach1revo Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 The nose does look awkward in the pics compared to in person. I have narrowed the front of the frame to tuck in behind the grill shell now and i think i want to maybe mold the headlights into the side of the hood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichCostello Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Maybe you should make the hood/grill tilt forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackout Racing Posted October 15, 2012 Share Posted October 15, 2012 I like the nose, and I think having the headlights molded to the sides would look good.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
