Here's a McLeagle I built a while back. Built from a Maxi-Models kit. Chevron chassis.

She's coming along...

I decided to go with the Surtees #7 livery. Still waiting for the decals to arrive from Indycals. They have nice selection GT and CanAm decals to go along with their stellar selection of Indy and F-1 cars. The inserts look like they are falling out, because they are! I have affixed any of external parts yet. The paint still needs work....

I'm using a CG Slotcars universal chassis w/Slot.it sidewinder motor pod, scaley 18k s-can, Slot Car Corner wheels, D'Art inserts.

Can you tell me more about the chassis? I just started a thread in scratchbuilding concerning that subject.

Thanks, Walt

Here are a couple of pictures of the chassis.

Hey Walt,

What are you building?

Paul,
I managed to get 1 of the RMS Ferrari 612 kits Ky Slot Racer had offered earlier in this thread. I ordered a Slot it HRS chassis as that is what it's designed to fit. Will be awhile before I can get to it but will try to post pics as I go.

The CG chassis is cool , thanks for posting pics of that.

Paul,
Nice job! I bet that 18k motor is about right. I tried an orange can in mine and it's a rocket but challenging in the handling department.

[WaltB]

I like it! There are so many Can Am cars to do and so little time and money, but what a great series to pursue.

None of these are "my latest" , but they are a few Canam cars that I have done over the years.

Cheers

Chris, you are a GENIOUS!!! Your work never ceases to amaze me. I wish I had 1/1000th of your ability.

Wow, those are beautiful. I need those. See Chris, you are a bad influence and a helluva car builder too.!


Are the Truescale still available anywhere and what wheels/ inserts are on the M12's
