One of the famous Wheelstanders of the day, Hurst Hemi Under Glass. Looking forward to this build.
Now you will have to have a miniature Linda Vaughn beside the car.
I’m curious as to whether you guys will be building these Gassers with the body position or chassis high off the ground?
I have done the same as DB, use the bracket as a template for the motor plate except I just used an electric drill. Not as neat as DB’s but it works (I beat both of you, I have zero % skill).
My next post will have a chassis with the homemade motor plate.
The motor bracket is from a company called AB Slotsport in Great Britain. You can Google it, I do not think I should post a link here.
In the chassis section, you can find the AB Midi reversible bracket. It is 3 pieces so you have the option of making it an offset or zero offset mount depending on how you solder the side legs.
I must say I learned something about paying more attention to the assembly of body kits. The close up images exposes some areas that I should have cleaned up (sanding) before painting. Live and learn.
Hello Gentlemen:
I am a long time lurker on this Board and do know or have raced with a few of you. I have known John since the beginning of the Maxport II Club in midtown Toronto some 12 years ago.
A real “car guy” who one day rediscovered Slot Car racing as many of us have. Besides racing at Maxport, he also raced with the SS32 (the club before the creation of R32). He once told me he enjoyed Slot Car racing and the guys (at least most of them) more so than his 1:1 Car friends.
He always made me laugh when he would tell me how many slot cars he owns after taking an inventory. “That’s it, no more cars!” he would say.
However when something new would come out, he would proudly show his latest purchase.Peace to you John.
Gary
