Sorry, the flower was for a girl in my Auto class. Now I have to one up it and make her something better...

Steel flowers, how romantic.

The engine is a Hemi 426 which I will be converting later on. For the trans, I made that from scratch, check pages around 38.

That looks great Mike. I've been gone to get ready for school and you've made a ton of progress. I can't wait to see what you do next.

Re: ULTIMATE SCRATCHBUILD: 1/6 Hot Rod (Progress)

So it will have working suspensions !
Is that the prototype for your 1:1 rod ?

Re: Re: ULTIMATE SCRATCHBUILD: 1/6 Hot Rod (Progress)

hey thers not any build pics from fabrication that would be useful , er where did you get the engine from i've seen model kits for just engine's is that what you used?

the shocks looks positive to look great but why not just by some shock's for a rc car or is the plane to fabricate as much as possible yourself?
