4x57

More, more, more!!!
I especially like how you build your springs.

thanks skip, it's fairly quick and easy that way.

thanks iceman.

Hey you posted here also. Cool. What color are you planning on painting this one?

I like the flat color idea. And I would say if the 1:1 car has it, you should add it to this one. Those little details are what helps these car look even better.

i agree iceman...gotta round up some pix of a 57 without the trim

thanks tool

well alrighty fellers, here's some updated pix;

a completed spring pack

and mounted to an axle

and the rest are just of how i blended the two frames together










and since i mentioned this being the 3rd go around for me and this particular amt kit, here's a couple of the first 2(dont mind the dust)

thank you kind sir:D

thanks skip:)

ok it aint much but here's a couple pix;

frame in primer(still need putty and sanding)



these will be my headers(who wants to geuss where i robbed them from?)

i hadta redo all the spring packs cuz none matched up so here's the new fronts


and some pieces for the cage

i did have the chassis...it just finally made it to primered status and now i've GOT to address some of the obvious and visible gaps n such with putty. and the original springs...well...let's just say i'm not sure what happened there but they didn't match at all.

I'd go with #2 or #3. Definitely not #4. Looking good. Is the cage going to be a problem for the windshield? Looks like a very tight fit

I'm for 3 myself.

lol skip

ok here's a couple pix...got the hardest part of the dash done




and since the cage did interfere with the windsheild i redid the front legs. i'm gonna add a couple side bars but otherwise this be it(5 bonus points to whomever can pick out the piece of the cage NOT scratchbuilt and i'll make it 10pts if ya can tell me the kit it came from)


got the motor/trans pretty much located(slight adjustment needed)


and lastly i started getting some paint on some parts(still no idea how the body's gonna look) it's testers flat red spray and testers flat black brushed on

you got it gardner! congrats man
