All that jiggin about is certainly paying off buddy The arches and chassis look might fine to my eye too talking of jigs... I might steal that idea for my F1 build, if that isn't lined up correctly it'll look more and bit odd ! Keep it 'rollin |

Qwick U/D........... Re-made and fitted the inner windscreen framework, looks innocent enough but by ferk was that a b`stad.........it was so delicate and had already been chopped once............   A qwick blast of the Grey stuff..............then i can re-scribe the outer gap `tween inner frame and bodywork.....  Next up i re-designed the `zorst......suprising what can be done with 2 Tiger tank shells!!!!    Engine will sit a bit higher than that coz it snags some linkage...........also it`ll be set closer too the firewall!! Thanks all |

Jeff, Mark and Lui..........thanks a bunch guys, sorry for the late reply but i`ve had major computer issues........breakage wise not viral , i broke the inner part of the monitor (not the glass) and i reckon i`ve knackered the inverter!!!, i`ve now got a monitor plugged into the spare port on the lappy and i`ve added a separate keypad via a USB and i`m just using the lappy as a base........it`s just like using a tower system but smaller ........i actually quite like it ....... it`s a bit like a Frankenstein computer ( i never move around the house with it anyway coz it`s in my modeling room 24/7). Jeff...... i wracked my brains trying to find something i could use that had a slight conical/taper, i tried drinking straws, sanding a tube or scavenging parts from the spares box........nothing was suitable and i was gonna give up when i found the shells by accident, needed a bit of work but they`re glued, filled, filed etc!!, they`ll be ok under a coat of paint i reckon Mark........typical ain`t it, i see quite a few rods when i`m out in the cab but i never gonna a camera , when i was doing the 57 Chevy i found one in the process of being restored.........she`s a mess at the mo but a lick of paint and she`ll look superb Lui..........cheers mucka, always a pleasure having ya great compliments fella Right i `spose i`d better think about doing some more on this then..............i had a feeling i was gonna be finished on here coz i couldn`t afford to get it repaired..........however £3.50 for a monitor cable and i`m back in contact |
