The problem with foams is that if you try to push the rim in the foam with wet glue it just pushes the glue out.

You should consider a chassis protector with your undertray depending on where you run, from my experience the underdray traps dirt in and under it and basically sands your chassis.

There are also a few tricks to judge where you are on the low end needle. Once the high speed is set you can work on the low speed. Note, the high speed MUST be set before you attempt to set the low speed. As guggles said the engine must be hot and keep in mind you can't properly tune on the bench, ...

+1, my buddy got a shredder and I was jealous

You know what they say, if it were easy everybody would be doing it

The main thing against the DS is that it's not a standard size, and until the wide proline VTA bodies came out not much fit when Bolink disappeared. It is a cool car and running options are far better than a pan car, so I can see it being popular enough, just not 10/10T popular.

Traxosho is nearly done...... I spent WAY too much on shocks for this thing!!

Does it need an antenna poking through the body or not?

Just sayin'

Originally a 351 Cleveland 2v barrel car (H code), 302 wasn't an option in '69 and '70 for the Mach 1. But it does have a 302 with small(ish) cam, long tubes, Holley 4v, Edelbrock Performer. Supposedly has forged pistons, but the motor runs so darn good it doesn't matter to me. Story is the Clevela...

Interesting you mention this, as one of these popped up locally for not many $$$ the other day, and I had to work hard to stop myself from throwing a bid on it... T35.jpg They look cool and vintage perfect, and can be upgraded for LiPo charging, but I don't *really* need another charger..... It's m...
