1:64 Rat Wheels

Here goes my first rat ever. I never thought I would ever in my lifetime build one. My buddy gave me a 1/64 Hot Wheels Bone Shaker a few weeks ago, and what better to do then rattify it. So far I've chopped off the front end (will be substituting for a '32 Ford Front unless I find a good engine), chopped off the back and modded the body. I chopped the top just a tad. Filled in the back panel, and started making some rust holes.





Yes, crappy pictures. I should be getting my new camera this week.

So here are the plans for the rest of the build.
-'32 Ford Front end, unless a really nice engine is found.
-Scratchbuilt frame with lefspring solid axel front end, and a solid leaf rear end.
-Zoomies out the side
-Triple Velocity Stacks
-Machined Steelies, fats in the rear, skinnies up front
-Scratchbuild slicks and salt flat front tires.
-Primer paint scheme with a ton of rust.
-Machined Moon Tank
-Retro Drum Brakes

Enjoy.
