Well at first I just wanted to put it on the workbench, then i said to myself, Self (and myself said "Yes") this build needs to be in Big Boys, So i made a second thread in Big Boys. Then some one in the chat room said to me "Hey Romell please post this in the Drag Racing forum cause all i ever check is the drag racing. So i said ok as long as Gregg or Harry doesnt put me infront of the firing squad for it. Well the three threads are still up and I have avoided the firing squad so far. So i'll leave it up untill im asked to delete it. Oh and thx for the compliments my friend. LOL! -
Yeah brother Ive seen this car It's AWESOME!! I just wish I had pics of the interior.

thx fellas for the wonderful compliments Hey Fellas I decieded to cut my lenco tranny into pieces so i could detail it, but in do so It seemed to me that i could make a better tranny altogether. At first I planned to make it from styrene but a quick trip to my work shop and i found out I didnt have any left. So heres the new plan fab the entire transmission from brass! Can it be done? We'll soon see. Enjoy! heres the resin tranny pictured after i cut it up. these are the materials i'll use to build the new tranny... four differant sizes were cut from two differant sizes of brass tube. I cut round plates which will later be shaped as the connection or mounting plates for each section. (sorry its blurry) here im beginning to solder the end caps on, I think my soldering gun is poopin out on me............. I'll have more for you soon , gotta go buy a new soldering gun so i can continue.........cya soon.

Hey Dave thx for the concern , But this chassis is in no way complete. Im bouncing between references as i go. Which means im building as i learn. This is my first ProMod so im learning as I go also. But believe me that it will have everything it is supposed to by the time of completion. And you are guessing correctly I have left out sections to make assembly easier. and as far as the angled support , I saw one one a chassis i was looking at and I liked the way it looked so i did mine that way. Take care my freind and good to hear from ya! -
