Tim, here is that link for the screen http://www.caboosehobbies.com/catalog/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=790&products_id=76376 Hi Nick, Thanks and good to see another Co. , I'm up in Ft. Collins Thanks Rick, great car you have ! Is that an H&M continuation car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark IV Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) No, It is a Superformance as I am a dealer for them. Lee has only built and sold two "continuation" cars as I understand. I will ask him next time I see him what the count is now. Edited February 22, 2015 by Mark IV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy D Posted February 22, 2015 Author Share Posted February 22, 2015 Hey Rick, So you are that Rick I have seen your posts over on the GT forum. Is that the chassis that is for sale? Appreciate the offer on the pics, will be bugging you soon! Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark IV Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Yes, it is 2171 that is for sale. Will be replaced with a MK I. We have recently sold several MK Is that are done to early car specs and are working on the Borrani wire wheel option! Let me know what you need, pictures, dimensions, etc. I have access to a couple of FAV cars as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy D Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Hi Folks, Update.... A little more frame work around the rock screen, Working up the steering rack, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy D Posted March 4, 2015 Author Share Posted March 4, 2015 Sorry, Photobucket issues with the second part of this update !! I need the steering to function so the front wheels will be ' poseable' , along with the working shocks and suspension. Using a smaller rod that slips thru the rack and heat shrink tubing to take the place of the knuckle joints . The 'boots' are rubber that will flex.... The hard lines are for brake and clutch that go between reservoir and master cylinder. Thanks for looking in !! Randy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark IV Posted March 4, 2015 Share Posted March 4, 2015 Very nice! I went down to my workbench and stared at my multiple projects underway (if you keep the bench full with incomplete stuff, it hides the fact that I almost NEVER finish anything) and bowed down shouting "We're not worthy!!!" Heck, I fat finger stuff on the full size car! More please Sir................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
