br67 Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 Hi, any one have any suggestions for a better chassis with separate components for the Mpc 72 Vega please?
Ace-Garageguy Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 Are you wanting to build something stock, or a gasser, or pro-touring, or what?
Mark Posted November 12, 2017 Posted November 12, 2017 For a close-to-stock Vega, take a look at the AMT (not MPC) Chevy Monza. For a pre-75 Vega, you'll want to lose the long "torque arm" that was added for the Monza. The Monza kit parts aren't the greatest (AMT was "offshoring" some tool design during that period) but it is the only stock Vega/Monza underbody out there that hasn't got everything molded as a unit.

Casey Posted November 13, 2017 Posted November 13, 2017 (edited) As Mark suggested, the AMT "chassis" is the way to go for an H-body. You can see the (topside at least) AMT Monza 2+2 parts via the instruction sheet here: http://round2corp.com/model-kit-instructions/uploads/AMT1019_Instructions.pdfYou can always add front wheel wells from other kits (AMT '75+ Nova for one) to get more engine compartment detail.

br67 Posted November 13, 2017 Author Posted November 13, 2017 Thank you Casey. I'll keep an eye out for one on ebay
