Sloppy's Jalopies
ON A '40 WOODIE BASE, AXLE / WHEELS ...TBD. ;
Smitty have you done a Maisto 34 Ford Hot Rod rebuild yet?
eeuh!
the MAISTO '34 coupe is slightly bigger than most hot wheels... i narrowed the rear quarters and trunk up to the backlite [rear window], for tire clearance, and plunked it on a rat bomb's base, with narrowed sweet 16 II's rear wheels as fronts... no pix, gave it away long ago !... memory says it was fast but a light weight.
.
trimmed dairy delivery's roof ;
I'm in the middle of mounting one on to a Straight Pipes chassi, which after a little trimming is a real close fit. I had to narrow it quite a bit with a file at the axels to get the wheels that I want to use to fit. I cut the groove for the back axel quite a bit deeper so the larger rear wheels will fit without any body work. It comes with blacked out windows and no interior, so adding weight should not be much of an issue.......maybe
nice fit on the roof, real nice

1" belt sander that GE threw out about 20 years ago, it also pre-spins the wheels with the paper back side of the belt...
'53 chebby on a '55 bel-air base, rear peg and hole align, the '55 grill looks ok too ;
it's kind of a wonder if i can type thing... except for the new factory gig i wouldn't run a gm...... so if interested i'll trade...
paint the body, glue in the glass and grill, the axles are stock and ready for your transplant... in a race entrant, reuseable blister car card...
