wkennerley Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 I have a 1.32 gowland & gowland hot rod and decided to do something a bit different with it as I did not like the V8 with the kit - I found a mercedes SSK engine in my spares box as well as the chassis from the MG TD - I have mocked these up with two different sets of wheels, any thoughts please - Not trying to base it on any style per say, just a rod from different parts - I am looking for a ford coupe body to use instead of the gowland body though.

blunc Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 SWEET!!! more small scale stuff. looks like a fun kit bash. 1/32 scale slot car wheel/tires would really knock this out of the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blunc Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) Hi Mike, any suggestions as to some suitable slot car wheels please, Thanks Wayne I have gotten the impression that slot car racing may be popular over in the UK, you should be able to source some wheel/tire sets local to you. Here is just one of the many sites that carries slot car parts: http://chicagolandtoysandhobbies.com/Slot-Cars-1-32-Parts-Wheels/ I mounted a set of BRM wheels on this 34 Ford.
