Turtle Deck T

[arick]

I'm not going to let Gramps get away with having more projects on the go than me so I'm going to post a couple more of my own.

The first one is this T. This is an MF fibreglass body that came with a full hood and track style nose. I'm thinking that I may add a full belly pan. My intent is to run a fully detailed TDR Offy with a four speed trans and a TDR Halibrand style rear end hung on coilovers. The chassis comes from the R/M "Big T" kit (thanks Gramps) and I've fully boxed it. I'll also use a modified "Big T" front suspension. Wheels will be painted Jag wires. The tires come from the R/M Big Deuce.

ive been imagining a 1/8 scale build of this one i finished a year or two ago.

i want to see that body you have there, and need to know where to get one!

JB........the body that Rick is using is one of the fiberglass bodies that the Madd Fabricator produces along with the track style nose. Contact him or M.F to see about availability.

That body along with the TDR "Offy" would definitely make for a sweet 1/8th build like your small scale version.

I'll let Rick know that you would like to see more pics of the body.

I highly recommend this body JB. The benefits of fibreglass over resin are strength, consistant thickness and no warpage. I've purchased several MF bodies and they are very high quality. My camera is on re-charge but I will post more photos later.

Rick, thanks for the compliments on the M.F. bodies. As you know I do not produce any body in cast resin, and I do not sell any seconds, as there are none. Every body that leaves my workshop is 1st class because each body is individually hand laid fiberglass. I have complete control over the quality of the product. This hand lay up of a body also allows me to fine tune each body to any of the customers specific requests, where as with a resin cast body, to do any deviations from the mold is impossible without modifying the mold.
