Fist bump to Fishtail for putting the stacks in opposite directions - nice detail!

[quote="Milton Fox"]Gulp! Those engines are 4x's the size of mine.

First entry mock up build. Still need to do some touch and not sure about the chrome exhaust.

Milton--what the heck is that first thing? Nice build!

Smitty, that car is interesting. It's not too wide for the track, is it?

Unmodified cars....so no lead.... I will remember that......

The race cars I'm sending in have no extra lead weight and neither does the extras I'm sending FF

Smitty, good call on the Vicky....close to weight stock....but none of your cars remain stock for long.

If I need to add a grill or lights to my second entry I will.

IMO... your engine if forward enough that a grill might protrude too far... run it rat...

So am I required to have a grill on both my entries?

Milton--what the heck is that first thing? Nice build!

Thanks!, I narrowed it down to being an early '40s Ford (Maisto Knuckle Dragger, before pic is on page 3 of this thread). The base, front wheels and exhaust come from the HW's Greased Gremlin and the rear wheels from a HW's Back Slider. I chose to split the chassis rather than hog out the wheel wells to relocate the rear axle. May not ever do that again!

I didn't understand that you could make a rat rod look nice. All the pics I saw on Google Images were not pretty looking...........
