I've been eyeballing these conversions for a while now and would also appreciate some sort of history/chart on the types out there. How many companies made them?

Anybody know what shocks should be used on this car? I think it was made for the short front AE shocks all around.

Thanks,

Any modern shocks that would work? Like the blue AE or grey AE shocks? The BBT car has some modern parts on it so im ok with some modern shocks, My B&R sprint car i will have to source some old gold shocks lol, Would the B&R chassis also need the .56 fronts .71 rears shocks to?

Ok im an idiot :oops: , How do you measure a shock body lol, from where to where? i have a few shock bodys laying around but get nothing close to the normal body sizes that are listed all over this site.

Ok her some updated pics of my BBT Project,

I could not find the correct size shocks for the front so i just went with some that are a little to long, I plan on changing the shocks when i find a set that i like. Its kinda a mash up of old and new, The car was a mix when i got it so i just keep with the theme, I also plan on changing out the front shock tower, white does not look good on this car lol.

I love the polished Sassy Chassis plate...

I take no responsibility for the paint job, It was like that when i got it, Its vintage....
