Schwartz Mustang Chassis update...
 
2 Attachment(s)
My '66 Mustang project that sits on a Schwartz Performance Chassis just got a shot in the arm..... My Baer 6P Brake package has arrived and is installed ( at least up front) and my Denny's Driveshaft came in a few weeks ago.... Got the chassis separated from the body to mock up the Magnaflow exhaust and put some more pieces together and so far it's falling into place. Also fabbed the support for the Cobra gas pedal to sit in the correct orientation on the firewall so I now have thedriver controls where I want them. There's a little more bodywork to do before I get it to the"mud" stage... but it's getting closer!

Looks like it's gonna have a great stance.

I looks great Kevin, It should handle like a slot car with that chasis.

Nice Rocket Booster Grey's on there. I have those on my Cutlass.

I love the look of the booster wheels.... they suit the car and the build being 18's. The only issue is the clearance between the hoops and the calipers... gotta do some research and see if there's any issues. The templates that Baer provides are a great way to test fit... seeing the setup assembled is 3 dimensional and gives a complete perspective.... there is good clearance between the spokes and calipers.

Im looking forward to seeing the stance with the suspension dialed in.... with just the shell the suspension sits high... gotta get the cage, seats, glass, fuel tank, and front clip on it... then about 200 lbs of mud & primer oughta smooth it out a little... (LOL!)

Thanks for the kind words... More photos and updates soon.

I have Baer's T4 set up on the front of my Cutlass and I had to run a small spacer on the front to gain clearance. It's real tight, but it clears.

Beautiful photos Robert! Very nice work! When I have this car done maybe I could have you do a private shoot on the car for my records? Dont know if that's possible.... hopefully it'll be this year. ( finger-cross....)

PM me if you've got any ideas...
