Great idea on the step up on the chassis. Much better than bending it like we did on the 1/24 builds. Can't wait to see this finished. Jim

I like it! :D

Looks pretty good to me! I think the exhaust is awesome!

I sure like that step chassis design! I knew you would come up with a chassis that worked for these things!
Single post mount works great too.

Thanks guys, appreciate the feedback as always.

Progress tonight. Worked on front bar design.





Also had time to get one side bar installed. Nothing fancy and easy to solder. And as you can see I am not expert in solder. That's ok, it will look just fine when painted.



Drilling into the frame rail helps you a lot in these cases.



More work ahead but having fun and it's starting to look like something.

I was wonderin if you were going to post tonight. All that hard work I figured you were plum tuckered out :lol: :lol: :lol: Looks good so far. Now as long as it don't 3 weeks to paint???

That looks really great! The tip on drilling the hole first and inserting the rod for soldering is a good one!

That hoop on the front looks great!

2 weeks max :) I knew you were sitting on the edge of your seat waiting John...but I like to keep my audience riveted :)

Thanks Doc, that's how I cheat. I use a Micro drill (which finally broke after 5 years) to start the hole and then finish with a larger bit in my pin vise.

Well thanks guys.

But you got me beat by a country mile Dave. You and Bob are the guys I am trailing behind.



High standard to try and reach...but that is half the fun.

now thats what Im talkin about, A+ :text-bravo:

That chassis is looking fantastic!, This is going to be one of the Great ones. I see I need to step up the quality of the bodies to match the chassis being built!
Great work Harry, I love it
Bob

Well, not much progress. Finished the rear bumper and other side bars, need a clean up and paint job.





Installed the H&R Hawk as this is the motor that was agreed on for this series.

Lots more to do and I am very slow these last few days. But tomorrow I should have a finished rolling chassis :)

Looking REAL good Harry, cant wait to see the body color.That side bar treatment is nice, I have seen that style in a lot of early photos.
And you have nailed the look.

Bob

Thanks guys.

Now remember, this is me we are talking about. Don't expect a great paint job :) Hopefully have time today for a chassis test.
