ChrisBcritter Posted September 7, 2019 Posted September 7, 2019 Hey all - I know the current issue of the MPC '60 Corvette doesn't have the metal springs for the front suspension, but were any of the other parts modified as well? I'd like to have mine working if all I need are the springs. Thanks!
Mark Posted September 8, 2019 Posted September 8, 2019 The spindles were modified or retooled too. Like other working-suspension MPC 'Vettes, the spindle had an upside-down "L" shaped upper that hooked into a hole in the upper A-arm. You might be able to copy it with a piece of stiff wire from a paper clip, then epoxy or super glue it into a hole drilled in the spindle. It's hard to explain, but if you have an intact working-suspension kit, just copy the relevant parts to restore the feature to a later kit.
ChrisBcritter Posted September 8, 2019 Author Posted September 8, 2019 Aha - just looked at a photo of a current-issue kit's parts list and now I see the difference. Thanks Mark!
