Spent a few hourst this week at the bench. Now that ive got allot more parts to work with its almost like its falling together
First i needed to check if the rear brake brackets would fit the micro nitro rear hubs
And its like they were designed for eachother

Thats always a risk you take in this hobby

Gunner and already a true car guy. First hot wheels picked out of about 20 was a 71 candy red cuda lol

The lenco is what had me scratching my head lol but the rod makes complete sence. I didn't see hardware holding it together.
Keep up the incredible work!

Im blown away b6 that tranny just a change in shade can make such a difference. But ive always be curious. What do you use for mock up? White glue?
-
Well boys just a small update.

Well over the last few months ive been reasearching and planning this build.
Ive decieded to put as much detail (as i am capable of) into the 1955 sportsman with an updated chassis. all of this build is going to be 1sts for me and im happy how its turning out so far
These are only my mock up wheelie bars
Then i had to cut out the rear of the tub to accomidate the new style bars
-
Always loved this build glad you're back at it

yes please send link more references are always welcomeLast year NAPA bought my dad and I the full access tickets for the Capps/Schumacher pit. Since Ron has started to get familiar with me [i'm a pain and always represent NAPA] he allowed me access to take close up pics of his car for a future project.
I'll post pics here in this thread for anyone who wishes to see the differences.
Just have to find the folder they are in.

Im working on a new fc chassis now anx trying to update and make it current. The biggest headache is building the upper prtion of the roll cage as todays cars have sheet metal, or carban fiber aswell as tubing. Other than that trying to make a correct intake manifold for a 1471 blower and swap the stock dual mags with msd 44s, oh and the bell housing.

Either you are a very little man or you have insane talent. You are nothing short of a master
-
All I want are some 72 c10s from amt and some 80s chevy fleetsides
Oh and a repop of the 55 and 57 sportsman kits
-
This build looks great. I love that interior. But I had to giggle at the engine. I guess the factory forgot you can only notch an oil pan not the whole block lol. But your detail work is great
