High Boy chassis "How To"

[scatman]

Question, where do you put the iron tip when you apply heat?

[HomeRacingWorld]

Bump as requested.

That came out really great, Dave! The look with the body on and the exterior bar work is totally awesome.

I've got a 60's modified that I'd like to do. Maybe we can get a jalopy/modifieds proxy going................like the one you had last year. Think there'd be any interest in that?

Here's a pic of it; "The Big O", raced by a local hot-shoe, Olie Silva



I need to ID the body that was on the car.

That is too cool...any chance you could post a short video on the soldering process?

***You will need a piece of K&S 1/4"x1/8" strap to fashion the guide tongue from***

Dave...isn't that a piece of 1/4" x 1/16" in the picture? Doubling it to make the 1/8"?
Not nit picking, I am seriously looking into starting brass chassis building and the hobby store here sells K&S materials..I just couldn't find any 1/4 x 1/8 strap. But they do have 1/4" x .064".

An added note...I missed out on an ebay deal coz the seller wouldn't ship to Canada. Four 1:32 scale models already assembled (these kits were built back in the 60's) three 1930's hotrods and a 1939 LaSalle hearse. I was thinking it would have been cool to build that hearse. All four for $10. :doh:

Thanks

Looks like somebody is ready to get after it. Nice haul.

[tin_indians]

Do you think I went a bit too overboard? Waiting for the 1:32 '32 Ford roadster to get here I won on ebay..it'll be my first attempt.

I really need to build some chassis what solder and liquid flux do you use?

[HomeRacingWorld]

[SpeedyNH]
