Default TA-02 Brat

I always wanted to do something with my Brat body. I decided do build it with independent suspension, like the real Brat, and use an old Tamiya TA-02 Chassis for it.

This is a first try. The wheelsbase will be a perfect match, bu i am not sure if the tires are to big:





I will put this back in the box again and first finish brazing my tuber. So dont expect any updates to soon. I also have to collect some parts for it first. What do you think ?

Pete

Is that a beer with a screw off plastic top? Oh and now I see the glass with a little left. Smallest we have with a screw off top is a 40 ouncer, and it's a metal top. But once that top is off, it doesn't go back on 'til the 40 is gone!

Yeah, we germans are real gourmets: Drinking beer out of plastic bottles. I will be KILLED for that, if any of my buddies will see that .... But I cannot afford premium beer after I spend al my money for those little toy cars .....

Cheers Pete

I had to give up beer as well to pay for little cars. Of course I don't pour my beer in a glass...straight out of the bottle for me thanks.

I think the tire size is perfect greasypete. Of course I am more partial to the "hardcore" look than the "street driver" look.
