Posted: Sat Jul 11, 2020 1:33 am Post subject: Earnhardt donor kit question |
|
|
I recently bought some resin kits from SMH and Ace decals/resins. I plan on filling out my Earnhardt collection a bit more. I currently have the bodies for his cardinal tractor torino; along with his gm goodwrench cavalier and malibu. Ive got an early ford tbird chassis coming for the torino........but what would everyone suggest for the cavalier and malibu?
Any suggestions what chassis’ to use for his venturas and novas?
Thanks in advance!!! |

I use the AMT chassis because there more correct to what they ran. But if your doing to sit on a shelf and its just for you you can use any chassis just need to make them fit. Thats with all donor kits. I use all types under mine. Not a stickler. _________________ If you bought it a trucker hauled it.
A mind is a terrible thing to waste, have you seen mine? |

I have one resin chassis/floorpan for the torino but need to add the suspension and cage. I’d like to make it as easy on myself as I can since its not gonna be for someone else or for a contest. Thanks for the suggestion, gonna look into it. 👍 |

I'd use the AMT T-Bird chassis it's by far the most accurate chassis. Very similar to a Banjo chassis. |

Ive got the Kulwicki/Schrader Rookies of the Year T-bird combo coming.....I may save them to build, but may may decide to sacrifice one to use as a donor. |
