Looking good man  What's up with you and brass lately? I'm tempted to try it but I just not sure if it will hold up to my abuse. |

I love this build and am totally going to steal it. Very very cool. Anyone have a link to that static model? I didn't see the mfg's name or the model name mentioned, but I may have missed it. Is it currently still in production? I'm going to do some searching, hopefully I can find something, I've really got my heart set on this! Edit: Think I've found it. Seems to be a "Revell 1/8 1932 Ford HighBoy 3 N1 Kit". Found one on ebay that just went for $56, 4 days ago. My life story: 4 days late and 4 dollars short.

 ...I have seen you drive Brass is super light and really easy to work with,trying to keep the CG in check,I dont want it to tip over when it see's its own shadow Good triangulation is the key,suprisingly strong when built right.No zombie fumes either,just using my weller soldering iron and oatley plumbers tinning flux and it is a breeze Quote:

Devlin, don't forget the antenna with a raccoon tail. I hope you're bringing this thing to Montana this year. I'd love to check it out... |

Oh, the raccoon tail wasn't all that common, but it was something seen on old hot rods back in the day.  |

Back on this thing finally. I thought all I needed to do was wire her up,piece O cake right... couple hours and she will be runnin... SURE Well, 2 days later and I may be able wire it up tommorrow if I finish the other stuff first. Made and mounted a servo winch,also a old school max driveline to get the length I needed  Made a routing tube for the winch line  Flared the ends to keep the servo line from fraying  Opened up the rear axle to put an underdrive set in and found this little gem  That prompted me to open the front end up and check it.Same deal.So I decided I better go over the entire rig and check all the nuts/bolts/screws for loctite and what not. I found a few items that needed to be addressed. Decided it was time for the new tires to get put to use so I mounted them up on my wheels Big D made for me.  |
