wreckers9 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Well..here is the first mock up of my first ever 1/16 scale build.. I'm aiming for a traditional low buck hot rod style and with no finial image of it in my head yet this could change lol. I'm Also open to ideas on how to zee the frame,drop the front axel and maybe chopping the top as i really don't want to mess this one up. Also..if anyone could point me in the direction of 1/16 aftermarket parts i would greatly appreciate that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astroracer Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 I modeled up some 1/16th scale cheater slicks a few years ago. Had them 3D Printed and gave the master to Ron Andrews of RMR Resin. Holler at him to get them cast!

RAT-T Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 THOSE LOOK GREAT MARK, WHICH WHEELS WILL THEY FIT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astroracer Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 THOSE LOOK GREAT MARK, WHICH WHEELS WILL THEY FIT?Thanks Tom,I modeled them to fit a true 16" diameter rim. If Ron ever casts them I will turn trim rings to fit that he can cast as well. I can always turn aluminum though if anyone wants that.Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
