I was asked by a friend to make a template of my Ascots chassis for him while I had it stripped down. I thought it might be useful to somebody on here. If you want a copy you will need to pm me so I can email you a full size version.
I was looking for a stock length Butterfly chassis for my new project for a Ford F150 Ranger XLT. There are couple of them on evilbay, prices were ranging from $125 to $200. Outrageous prices too. So I decided to make one myself. I have an original...

Well I've already started to work on my Ascot I want it to look half decent until I get around to a total rebuild. Anyhow a couple of things I've noticed about this lead me to believe that they weren't made as well as the Big Boys Toys sprinter. The...

Looking great Pete. That sprint was good score. Nice work cleaning it up.

holy crap, that T1 is, how to say it... dead? How did he do that :shock:
It had a slight disagreement with the rolling tires of a Ford Expedition and obviously the Expedition won.

I just recently went through this for my big boy toys sprinter(which I sadly just sold to fund a modern customworks racer)
there are two Sprint bodies that mcallister made back in the 80s that would work for the early Big Boys Toys Sprints, and I...
Only a mock-up for now to test how everything fit together....which is remarkably well. I was able to use existing holes on the rear arm mounting plate for the rear of the cage but they do push the main cage about 1/2 further ahead of the rear...

I have been thinking to do this my selves, so I will follow this closely :D
Does anyone know where the display cars ended up? They had a couple sprint cars in glass display boxes going around the dirt turn like a diorama. RC10s converted to be exact. They were gorgeous. I wonder who ended up with them?
