Dave's 37 Chevy Oval Racer

[DaveM]

Hi Guys,

This is a build I started about 4 years ago, it has sat for a long time.

I modified the 6 gear cases for the RCCA magazine out-drive mod, added ASC 6614 black idlers, and

finally found a aluminum top shaft bearing plug.

I also very recently went back to RC10 short front arms and black Andys rear arms.

I dyed the 6 gear cases and front arms black.

Here are some pics, top one is the latest.

Cheers, Dave.

Looks good Dave. That and your red one must look good sitting beside eachother.

Looks fantastic! What body is that?

Hi Don,

The shell is a RJ Speed # 1017 37 Sedan Body.

I've just woken up after reading the Tower Hobbies ad it says a "generic 37 sedan body"

I will have to edit my post I think I will make it a Chevy 37 sedan

Thanks Dave, I'll have to pick one up for a future runner project. As long as it's Chevy it's all good.

Looks great. Any chance of getting a body off shot of the whole car? I'd love to see some full frontal.

Hi Theytookmythumb,

There's nothing like full frontal

I will get a shot today, I have to go out today to see RJ at Hobby Habit, will do when I get home.

Hi Thumbs,

Top less shots as requested

Top pic is the latest one.

As you can see she's still not finished.

I have a Trinity Slot Machine brushed motor, no speedy yet.

I will use a cut down battery cup mounted on the rear tower for the speedy.

Dave.

[THEYTOOKMYTHUMB]

Thanks! Looks like a true racer.

[DaveM]

Hi Thumbs,

Thank you very much, I am very happy with the old girl.

Next step find a Vintage Speedy, I might actually finally get to drive her.

It has been a long journey but I wouldn't have it any other way

Cheers, Dave.
