This has always been one of my favorite HW castings, but never liked the stance or the wheel base. I found this one in a thrift store and deciecded to do some changing...
The car was pretty well beat and had atleast 3 million miles on it. The wheels were completely rusted to the axels and would not roll atall. I disassembled it and filed a deeper axel grove into the chassis to make it set higher. I added a piece of aluminum tube to get a wider wheel base also. So, here are the step, by step results !!!These are the wheels I wish I would have stayed with !!!I got the right stance and width I wanted...Slapped some primer on it...Then some paint...Then a little detail...I wish HW would put em out this way !!!
