...................started getting serious on this one today,and the 361 Brockway and the B-61 Mack came from Karl -
Finished her up,I didn't put on the body side molding using BMF because the 3D print body wasn't exactly correct with the body feature lines,,all in all turned out better than I thought considering it was built with a good dose of my parts bin and like I said before in the build thread the Fireball wheels/tires and front locking hubs made a big difference

Monogram SuperBee chassis pan in the Polara,,pretty close ,,,might have to add some strips to fill the rocker "frame" rails to body too. I think I'll just add to the front frame rails a tad for that little difference,,,what do ya think ? I would just make some longer torsion bars . The trans mount would be shy a bit too,,Or section the pan in front of the rear frame rails and add a bit there? OR section it right behind the torsion bar sockets ?? I think moving it forward to where the control arm/spindle would be centered in the wheel well add the difference in the pan and move the rear section so the axle is centered -

I just pulled out and checked the Superbee chassis pan ,,,,it will fly. I think the easiest way to gain the little bit in the wheelbase will be to lengthen the front frame rails rather than section the floor pan ,,I'll take some pics tomorrow.Oh and the 3D print engine is bad,,actually undersize,and the Torqueflite looks like a Powerglide,lol,so I'll use a Monogram 1/24th 440 or look for a better 3D job on the innerweb.I've done a bit more on the Travelall today ,,I ordered some better tires and steelies from Joe at Fireball,they should be here soon -
