It sure is a heavy beast! I dug this pic up off the net of one sitting next to a chevy small block.? The plaid valve covers were a factory thing apparently.
I picked up a couple of these at the flea market. I decided not to build them since they are 1/24…but they have a lot of great parts including the frame and suspension parts. I’m looking forward to your build of this one Bob!?
Thanks Guys! I wasn’t thrilled with it when I peeled all the tape off. A little bland looking I thought. I think once I get the chrome engine and wheels installed it may spice it up a bit though.?
I just made these ones. First I drilled a 1/16 hole clear through the block and added a steel rod that I will later replace with styrene. Then I drilled a hole in the end of some .100”x.156” evergreen and trimmed it to fit each side. A touch of glue and it’s mounted. I plan to drill and pin them through the side of the frame yet and file them to shape a bit.
