While I was looking at pictures to get ideas for Mod builds I can across this one..



I liked the dark blue and white.. One of my boys is named Cooper and it has "Cooper Oil" on it..
SO, I decided to build another mod based on this random picture find..

I don't have a body yet but Bob is hooking me up soon.. so I worked on decals and today I built the chassis.
Chassis won't be 'exact' put I think I'm capturing the look close enough.

I did some sub assembly work first, then put it all together.. I made a time lapse movie when I put the components together..

Here's the upper front end / radiator support being built:




Here's the parts ready for assembly:




Here's the time lapse movie of putting it together (only 20 seconds long)




and here's the chassis as of now:






I'll work on the rear axle carrier and resin engine while I'm waiting on the body~

Kev, watching that video, I realized that you can build almost as fast as Shotgun! :laughing-rolling:
I will get your bodies out to you ASAP. I didn't know I was the holdup!!!! :oops:

Bob

LOL... Only Dave is working in real time!!

Please, don't worry about the bodies.. you are not a hold up LOL.. and I've got
plenty of other little things to do.. no pressure at all on getting them out!
I was slow at work this morning so used the time to build the chassis~

I'm so far behind I feel like giving up. Not only am I short of bodies, I'm basically snowed out of my workspace. The lows at night this week have been + or - zero degrees, and the daily highs in the low 20s. The arthritis in my hands won't let me work in my shop with the temps in the forties, even with a heater blowing on me. I'M GOING STIR CRAZY/CABIN FEVERish!!!! GAAAAAHHHHH!

Oh yeah... Really nice build, Kev. You're getting way too good at this. Is that a heat barrier in the shot with the sub-assembly up top?

Excellent sir. What a great looking start to a another nice build.

Kev, looks like you have ben bitten by wire bending, chassis building bug....looks good....
