Ended up using the previous chassis for another build so just got another one done, using a 3D printed FF050 motor pod done by my brother.

I still like the adjustable wheel base feature and the performance doesn't seem to be adversely affected.

Rolling chassis runs well.

Body mounting next.

Made side pipes from 1/8" and 3/32" brass tube soldered to the chassis side pans. Were originally suggested for my Coupe build by the late Marty Stanley so I thank him for that.

Runs great for a small car so all is good.
