Jiggin' it up - Shotgun Sedan FINISHED!

[HRWJim]

Very nice build Harry. I like the color combo. Jim

That came out great Harry, I now those are unusual colors for you, but I really like the gold accent stripe!

[HomeRacingWorld]

Thanks fellas.

Yeah, I saw the black and gold and thought why not? I was hoping they would work well together :)

Yes, the stripe is cheating. Good old automotive pin stripe!

[goosenapper]

That ended up looking rather spiffy!

Thanks for that body mounting tip. That's a mighty crucial step that I don't often see spelled out in builds, as though the mounting process is an innate ability held within all chassis builders except for me, or that the body magically sticks to a well-built chassis!

I like that dashboard too. Simple, but it works good enough.

[Wolseley Hornet]

Lovely car!

Another inspiration.

Very elegant chassis construction too.

David.

Great build thread! The longer I explore this site the more info I am reading in an almost bottomless well of Slot racers expertise and advise. I am building a chassis for a Shotgun 40 Ford coupe and like your mounting system. I have used 1/4" square pine on lots of my cars. I glue it to the body with Goop. It holds really well, you don't have to mix it, and most importantly, you can peel it off if you need to.

[HomeRacingWorld]

Thanks sir, glad you are enjoying it.

The 1/4" pine is good, have done the same and you are right, it works great.

[Cosmic Bilby]

....I love it, its great fun....
