Shaynus 66 Report post Posted January 10, 2021 I guess it could be used under a "crashed" car in a track side diorama scene - put stub axles at the back to give a broken rear axle look... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oldskool62 40 Report post Posted January 10, 2021 @rosco01 one of my customers in orange is friends of Bill Browns. It's an amazing piece. Once I work out how to post images I will put a picture up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rosco01 128 Report post Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) I use PostImage, OS-62..... bit of a pain not being able to post direct into our forum, but it doesn't take a lot to upload to PostImage - then copy the provided link and simply paste into your thread..... let me know if I can help. Link to PostImage..... it's free, and seems to work pretty well for me - only downside with being free - pix have to be uploaded separately... just a bit of an inconvenience. https://postimages.org/ But, compared to my previous host - where I did a huge amount of work on many other forums..... and then they all disappeared because they wanted money.... grrrrr So far so good with PI..... frats, Rosco Edited January 10, 2021 by rosco01 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
big den 23 Report post Posted January 10, 2021 Oldskool62, You're right on the money in thinking about using an HRS2 chassis for your HQ Monaro build. I have several HRS and HRS2 chassis and find their versatility so helpful. My latest conversion was to use an HRS2 sidewinder under a Revell Lola T70 body.

Den @big denI will one day learn how to make chassis but until then the off the shelf package works. I am going to do an early made/release pair of Dick Johnsons 17 & 18 Sierra's and use modified PCR chassis from late release Sierras. I will make sure that I modify the chassis to accommodate the body so if one day I want to put it them back to stock I can. Bastardising old survivors in anything is something I try and avoid.
