RodneyBad Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 It looks perty good. an old AMT kit? Is that a Kyosho Mini-Z chassis? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordh8r Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 RC car? What scale? I think it looks good. Only critique to offer is maybe get the hood to fit better, if possible. That to me would be the finishing touch. Otherwise, very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I was thinking of the much larger scale RC kits that you have to to assemble. How much work does it look like to modify the chassis for different wheel base models?

How much work does it look like to modify the chassis for different wheel base models? well as you all know every model is different, the chassis comes with a small spacer to fit the body that comes with the chassis, in my case a 05 mustang. when you first start out you buy extra spacers and add them together, or take the time to cut styrene to fit it just right better shot of chassis, streched Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they're already made to be adjustable for different wheelbases. Nice! I just might look into an RC conversion sometime. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may be a while though, I'm still putting together my Hobby room. In fact, I just bought a small desk today for my workbench. So I'm off to go build my new desk and start getting things ready to start building again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
