nice.

Baby steps...

Don't make the mistake of mounting a bunch of tires before you find out what works first there Scr8p JR ....LOL

what? i've never done that.

Bob, if those tires dont work for you...I KNOW they will work for me

I hear ya JK. Most of the buggies at the track I'll mostly attend run the barcode type tires or similar. Sometimes slicks.
I had to have these too for the street test and tune good times. A special thanks to Sofas tire barn!

My garage does resemble a barn, glad you like 'em!

Although, if you haven't glued the fronts yet I think I have a pair of Proline wide fronts in yellow (same width as your white ones pictured above). They give the tire a nice square fit.

Cool. Didn't glue them for the narrow reason. Are the Pro-Lines the same color yellow? Think I have a narrow set of those too.

They should be a perfect match for the AE florescent yellow. I'm going to have to do a bit more digging though, a quick scan only turned up white ones (again, like yours pictured above). I know I should have some though, the search will continue

Guess I will be driving around looking for a barn

Bob, looks great...get the car assembled already!

I have every little last bit to put this thing together except the chassis. I sent it to Mike to mill right before he injured his head. I hope his recovery is going well! Might go ahead and stick everything onto another chassis in the meantime. Got the itch to see this thing finished.


Sofa, let me know if you come up with the wide yellow fronts.

Still baby steps...

Chassis are done Bob and are going out tommorow.
Mike

Looks good! everything looks new, I'm sorry if I missed it, but what chassis are you using, and will you be installing raised dot chassis screws

No raised dot screws for sure.
Hope to have this put together this weekend.
