StyreneAddict420 Posted April 8, 2015 Share Posted April 8, 2015 Hello Friends, so after building my very first Pro Mod Car I had so much fun I wanted to do it again. it was also my first attempt at scratch building the chassis . Although it came out ok there was a lot of stuff that wasn't correct. So this time I did a lot of research and gathered a bunch of reference photos, I want to have the car as accurate as possible. The body Im gonna use is a 55 Chevy Bel-Air from a Revell kit. I ordered a bunch of parts from Scott at Future Attraction, Charlie from Pro-Tech and Ted from Teds modeling Marketplace! anyways here's a few pics of what I've got done so far, hope you like it! ENJOY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adhsdad Posted April 9, 2015 Share Posted April 9, 2015 Quick question: are you attaching your doors to the body or to the chassis? Ep Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StyreneAddict420 Posted April 9, 2015 Author Share Posted April 9, 2015 Quick question: are you attaching your doors to the body or to the chassis? Ep I'll be attaching the doors to the body, I made the cage so that I would have enough room for door hinges mounted to the body, I'm still playing around with hinge designs as well, not sure what type I'm gonna use yet. I will be posting more pictures of my progress tonight. And thanks to Everyone else for the positive vibes if anybody has any constructive criticism for me or notices that something is not correct, please bring it to my attention, I am trying to replicate a pro mod as correctly as possible. This is only my second attempt at Scratchbuilding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StyreneAddict420 Posted April 10, 2015 Author Share Posted April 10, 2015 So here's the progress I've made on the Chassis the past couple of nights, I'm getting ready to make up the firewall, then I'll move on to getting the rearend and 4 link mocked up. After that I'll get the front controls arms made up and the front struts! I've got a front end suspension kit and 4 link photo etch kit from Scott at Future Attraction and a bunch more goodies, way too much to list. I'll keep posting pics of my progress as I go. As always constructive criticism is welcome and any suggestions! Thanks for looking hope you enjoy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
