Ninco Vette build!

Well I am currently still working, I have been pretty much heading straight home everynight and leaving later in the morning. So I have been making some really solid progress on some projects I have had sitting around.

I picked up this Ninco Corvette from Bill about 4 months ago, with the intend of building a classic 1 car out of it. Well, needless to say I never got around to it.

Last night I pulled it out of the project line and got it pretty much squared away. I am going to change the motor, and may even just put an 18k in it. It handles well and I think can take the power.

-S-can 14k motor. (I might put an 18k in it for the time being)
-Slot.it Axles and 9/25 gearing (probably going to go up if it stays 14k)
-Front axle is blocked up with styrene sheet, then the front wheels trued down as far as possible.
-Front and rear wheels are Pendle Classics
-Rear tires are BOSA Ninco urethanes
-Professor motor Oilite bushings glued in the back, glued in place.
-Samson Clasics guide tube. I really like using these to put upgraded guides in cars where the post hole is too large or irregular shaped. I just ream out the chassis and press one of these in there. Perfect fit and the guide stays nicely positioned.
-Sloting plus wood guide w/slot.it soft braid
-Trimmed .050" off the body posts, installed urethane washers washers. (body lowered around .030")
-Lots of work done around the edges of the chassis and body to get some good float, this car was tight!
-lead

First few laps with the car and it was running smoothly and handling well, just needs more power!
