Prostreet

Looking good, What are you using for the brake line?

Jason, I used the body to make my outlines and mark my door areas and center lines on the graph paper then just winged it. I used lots of reference pictures off the net, I learned no 2 chassis are the same, especially from body to body. I used ideas from all different chassis at the time because i couldn't find lots of good pictures of just a 57 promod chassis, My chassis is not 100% accurate but close enough for a model and i'm extremely happy with the way it is turning out so far, I'm learning alot from this build and the great builders on this board and will try to make my next one even more accurate. But i also believe there is a point where it is hard to be 100% accurate with a model in the smaller scales.

Thx. Bart i really appreciate that man, The seem is at the bottom of the tunnel, There is all ready wrapped tubing at the bottom. I can just pull that tunnel in and out of it, i made it that way so when i paint it i can leave the tunnel with the finish it has now. I will try to get a better picture of the tunnel out of the frame tonight.

Your a building machine Tyrone,Both look great, i have been wanting to do a prostreet truck myself for a while. But i decided to do a 1/25th big rig next.

Thx. Tyrone, I learn alot from you guys on this forum.

Looking good Tyrone, Hope i can get my doors to fit that good when i do them.

Holy ###### Chris, Your really putting alot of effort into this build and it shows. Looks great, What is the #3 weld?

Thx. Guys, Can't tell you all my secrets. J/K lol, I used the end of a X-acto knife and bent it around it by hand. i did the top first to get a nice bend, Then i did the bottom and bent on half then the other. The bottom over laps a 32nd", the tin holds it's shape nice so it doesn't pop apart. I got my brake and clutch pedal mount and pedals done. this tiny stuff is very tedious and time consuming. gonna do the hand brake tommarrow.

Dave: Either under the drivers feet or behind the firewall, Also do they use the same master cylinder for the handbrake and do all promods run a handbrake? I'm more into the outlaw cars my promod knowledge isn't so great.

Only got a little work done, Made the Drive shaft tunnel. Used some K&S sheet and Plastruct .060" rod, I drilled some holes in the chassis and glued the hoops in and the tunnel itself is removable. Hope to have some more updates later tonight. it's been slow going but i'm making some progress lol.

Beautiful, those wheels were made for that car.

Excellent build very quality work.

Looks Great Derrick, can't wait to see it between the frame rails.

Looking good, I like it. Keep up the great work.

Thx. guys, I'm gonna mount them behind the front wheels. more updates tommarrow night.

Check out this build, Dave is the 1/8 master in my opinion. page 4 has some of the tubing sizes. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=39745&st=0

Nice work Mike, Glad to see you got it back out. looking foreward to an update.

Looking good as usual Tyrone, You moving fast on this one.

WOW, that is crazy

Thx. for all the compliments guys, It makes the build that much better to me. I'm trying to find some pictures of the Brake master cylinder setup for the brakes along with the hand brake setup, Not really finding anything. If anybody has any pictures of that and could share that would be great. I will have another update tonight since i played hookie from work today lol.

Shame to see that, actually happened a year ago.

Mike, here's a picture of the turbo next to the flashpoint BAE hemi. They are the 2-1/2" turbos, bummer is the detail isn't as good as it was on the larger ones but they are still nice, hard to get good pictures of it with my Iphone, I really need to invest in a good camera. Bart, Here are some more pictures of the cage and the seat mount setup. Kinda hard to see in these pictures.

Nice chassis work, will be watching this one.

Thx. Bart, The top half of the cage should be fun lol. I will try to get some better pictures of the seat mounts and cage tonight.

Two Thumbs up to Tim , He originally only offered some of the stuff i was looking for in 1/8, I contacted him and he did some turbos in 1/16th and added them to the catalog. I had one problem with my order that was my fault and TIm took care of it , very stand up guy.
