Truing all four wheels has made a huge difference in drivablitiy and the use of urethane tires mean I have abandoned magnets completely in these cars and have found the traction others told me was there when you get the car right.
Here are some pictures of this years project cars. Thanks to all those who made comments and suggestions to improve my efforts. I will be slowing down, but rainy days will still present opportunities to build another one, so I am not finished yet.
I never could never lay my hands on a Chaparral 2C, and it is the one car that is on the list that never got done. If anyone has one who would like to trade or let me temporarily use it to cast a mold I would be grateful. I continue to seach ebay but all that seem to come up are March Model fully built ones costing over $200, and there is no way I am spending that much to get one.
If one does not show up, I guess I will take this up a level and try and build one from clay.. I have a 1/24 and 1/32 one to use as a guide, but have never tackled a scratchbuild that involved. My 350 Can Am started off from a P4 shell so that was easy compared to wheels up build of a pattern.
Cheers
