I've seen a few Hot-Trick parts that were not red... and that drawing in the back certainly looks like one of theirs :lol:

Very nice indeed! That is a Hot Trick chassis. I have never seen one in gold before, but they did make parts in plain aluminum, red annodized, gold annodized and black annodized. Here is what an almost completed chassis looks like:

So Woobie, I'm going to guess it was a LTO (Left Turn Only) chassis? Or what else do you know about it.

I'm just hungry for info, as alot of that stuff I just overlooked or have forgotten. :)

Whiskers, I was thinking the same thing as you- LTO Chassis. I didnot even realize that Hot Trick made aluminum chassis plates, until I picked this one up. I have seen a couple others pop up on ebay, but never new, such as the gold one above. With the exception of wheels, mine is pretty much complete save one thing- there are aluminum rods that extend from the front to the back- you can see the tabs that they mount to, much clearer on the gold chassis. I have no schematics or antything for this, so if asashaw wanted to scan whatever he has, I for one would love to get a look.

Ok guys, got some questions. Recieved one of these chassis and included was some decal sheets from B.Mack Enterprises. I also have a wide front end kit from the same company and the nose plate looks identical to the one in the diagram that came with the chassis,but nowhere on the package does it say Hot Trick, just B.Mack Ent. Any ideas?
