 This is one of those kits that keeps getting moved around so I figured lets stop moving it and just build it. First I soaked all the chrome trees to get rid of the chrome. Revell loves to chrome the chassis parts.The kit did not have a firewall so cobbled up a simple one. I'm not going to use the spoke wheels it came with or the hood/sides , and these 2 pc vinyl/plastic tires are terrible, I tried Tamiya liquid glue, 2 part epoxy and Cyanoacrylate maxi cure (its like a thick  super aglue) but they still fall apart, I will be finding some big and littles from the parts box. Even though it will have this more modern engine, trans and suspension the colors inside and out will have old look paint.

I was going along on this build and getting things done pretty good ,and then I discovered this resin body in a box of rod items.

Is that the same chassis that's under the 26 T?

Im sure it is, the chrome trees are also pretty much the same. I broke a spindle and found the exact one in the parts box molded in a gold color.

Just about done with the body and interior and starting on getting engine/ drivetrain done. Thinking about going back and doing the hood, maybe without the sides, just the top.
