32 5W Chop

I have completed the rear end installation. The scratch built shocks were assembled and glued in place. Looks a whole lot better than the kit shocks

The front axle is glued in so work now on getting that end complete then we can get her up on all feet

A quickie mock up while I decide how to sort out front shocks as the front end has been lowered a fair amount. the body id still loose while i do the chassis work

[bill-e-boy]

Been working on the chassis. I made up a front and rear spreader bars as I was not happy with the kit chrome ones.  I used 1.6mm (1/16") stainless steel welding filler rod that I polished up in the lathe. I made slightly longer and filed back to size to fit snugly between the frame rails

 The motor is looking like a porcupine at the moment. These will find a place when I mount the body to the chassis - soon

The body has finally met the chassis. Glued up with 5min Araldite epoxy

Fit and finish is spot on. Is all the glass installed?

Great job of problem solving and "model-modeling". (oh. good grief🤪)

Good call on the colors.
