I had to build a new chassis to lower it some.Hope to give it some test runs by race night Monday

[Wolseley Hornet]

Looks lovely so far.

Any chance of a peek at the chassis without the body on ?

Thanks for the comments. Sorry for the blurry pics. As of now it is just tacked together. Am going to put some uprights in the rails, and a couple of dropped cross members for a motor mount.Haven't decided if I am going to put a belly pan on it or not.

looks good John you putting a drop arm on it?

[DixonJohn]

Don't know just yet.Probably not. I just figured out that my 1/2" wide stock I use to make my guide holders is missing.Guess a trip to St.Louis is in order.Dang the bad luck, having to go to a well stocked hobby shop.How will I handle the pressure???

[HomeRacingWorld]

I have some down here man :)

[DixonJohn]

Ok, I'll swing by after work today.Yeah we are working Sundays too

[DixonJohn]

Not much more done.Some due to other projects and some just lazyness on my part.(Did I just type that outloud :doh: ) Got a hood made, need to do some more work to the hood sides. The first guide coat is on.Decided to go with the Paul Gage jalopy tire.Now just waiting on some wheels.

New wheels and tires are in.Need to detail inserts but it's finally starting to look like something.

Got some paint on it. The hood crazed some. Have to sand and redo it but it's getting closer. Just to many projects going trying to keep up with you know who !!! 8-)
