slotmadmac Posted May 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 2, 2023 Variety is the spice of slot life and today’s project was to put a new chassis under this vintage Scalextric Healy body. I found a Cortina chassis in the parts bin, shortened it by 5mm, trimmed the ends so it would fit under the car and strengthened it with piano wire and JB Weld. I used plaster board plugs to make new body posts and I’m happy with the stance. I sprayed the chassis black to make it look more cohesive after this pic was taken. Drive chain, body paint / details to come later in the week. 1 Quote Podiums are for short people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slotmadmac Posted May 3, 2023 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 Running gear and paint done on the vintage Healey. It now runs a 16k FF from deep in the parts bin. That power suits this narrow car and the stance is great as it circulates the track. Quote Podiums are for short people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeGas Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 (edited) This build reminded me to ask if the IPS is still going, last I heard it was on HWR, had a look but cannot find info on it. If anyone has a link would be appreciated. Found it https://www.hrwforum.com/forum/hrw-all-scales/the-hrw-proxy-forum/196882-international-proxy-series-2023-gt-calss-rules-2-21/page2#post206103 Sorry for the hijack Mac. Reckon this one could be a contender though.
