Trans Am Erik Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 Some hacking and chopping. I've got a bunch of body work planned for this.
Trans Am Erik Posted November 22, 2014 Author Posted November 22, 2014 Profile, but removing the running boards created another problem. I have to extend the rockers to cover the frame rails.
Trans Am Erik Posted November 22, 2014 Author Posted November 22, 2014 I reshaped the side windows to modernize their look. I cut the windows up to the drip rails then added guides so I can rescribe the door lines. Similar to a new car the doors would take the whole A-pillar, and roll over the edge of the top.
oldnslow Posted November 22, 2014 Posted November 22, 2014 And this is going to be a slot car? If not it probably needs to be moved.
Trans Am Erik Posted November 23, 2014 Author Posted November 23, 2014 I contemplated just putting this in the normal "on the workbench" section. 1: It will be more model than slot car when it's done due to the body mods and details. 2: There's not much traffic down here in the slot car section.
oldnslow Posted November 24, 2014 Posted November 24, 2014 Kudos on heavily modifying the truck and then racing it. I'd be afraid of destroying it the first time it came off the track.
Trans Am Erik Posted December 9, 2014 Author Posted December 9, 2014 Building the slot car frame and relocating the rear body mount.
Trans Am Erik Posted December 9, 2014 Author Posted December 9, 2014 The rear body mount becomes the front hinge.
chunkypeanutbutter Posted February 19, 2015 Posted February 19, 2015 Awesome! Wish I had a slot track somewhere around.
