Title: 69 Ford Race Team WIP
Post by: slim on November 21, 2017, 10:03:53 PM

These are both AMT Torino chassis with a Ford Nascar front clip. I used all the usable racing parts in the kit and scratched the rest. I patterned my chassis after the HM Polar lights kit as a point of reference. Coming soon!

Thanks fellas, Rick, I will take some bottom side shots soon. There are no cuts, I lived with the molded in differential. You can see whwere I added the new front clip, and other added on details. Coffee first! lol
