Fat Rat Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Hey guys, I was starting a drag version of the 1967 Shelby by amt. Could someone recommend a chassis that would work well with this kit?
Snake45 Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 I believe that kit already has the best chassis available for any '64-'68 Mustang. But what do you mean by a "drag chassis?" If you want to build something like a gasser, altered, or funnycar, you might want to look at the recently reissued Malco Gasser, or one of the many funnycar kits.
Fat Rat Posted December 29, 2014 Author Posted December 29, 2014 I was thinking of a tubbed type chassis, like a pro street or pro stock.
John Pol Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Best thing to do scratchbuild the whole chasic from evergreen #222 solid rod
Fat Rat Posted December 29, 2014 Author Posted December 29, 2014 Yeah, that's probably the best option. Thanks John and Snake.
LDO Posted December 29, 2014 Posted December 29, 2014 Is it going to be a curbside model, or will it need chassis detail? If it's curbside, you could graft in the back end of a Pro/Street or Pro/Stock car. Heck, you could do that if it will be detailed. That's what a "back half" car is all about.
Fat Rat Posted December 29, 2014 Author Posted December 29, 2014 LDO, it will be detailed. I have a pro-stock thunderbird i picked up as a donor kit. The tubs are too wide to fit in the mustang.
