Mr.1/16th Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Thanks guys. Got a little frame work in, it's slow but you got to do it. "RIGHT-CLICK-SAVE"
MicroNitro Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Wow! That is excellent, Your brave cutting the tops of the doors out. I would have broke the window frames for sure. I can not wait to see more.
tyrone Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Looking good!!! Pro mods are my favorite, I've been checking out these larger scale builds, they look awsome, they seem easier to deal with over the 1/25 scale builds. Keep the pics coming
baddgass Posted April 22, 2011 Author Posted April 22, 2011 Wow! That is excellent, Your brave cutting the tops of the doors out. I would have broke the window frames for sure. I can not wait to see more. Well it took me over 2 hours to do. I like to use the frames to hold the window in. Looking good!!! Pro mods are my favorite, I've been checking out these larger scale builds, they look awsome, they seem easier to deal with over the 1/25 scale builds. Keep the pics coming I know you like Pro Mods, I've check out your work ( outstanding ) The biger scale is easier in some ways, but you have to make a lot of your parts. Well up 1/2 the night working on the frams.
djsmadplastic Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 Lookin good Derrick. Keep movin forward. Cant wait to see the progression and finished product.Good building!!
stump Posted April 23, 2011 Posted April 23, 2011 "RIGHT-CLICK-SAVE" DONE !! Totally AWESOME Derrick. And LOVE the idea with the floor plan, nice touch. Chassis is looking way kool mate. May I pick your brain ?? The Micro ball link.....what part of the build do you have planned for these..? I'm not familiar with them, and yes....I need to get out more, I know. I'll be following this closely as my build nears the bench mate.

No but the Mico-Ball comes from RC planes, thay can be used for front suspension. Like a ball jount for front strut. Hope this help. O yes love the 69 you'r building.
baddgass Posted April 23, 2011 Author Posted April 23, 2011 Work on the rear suspension components for the 4-link.
