For those building the XY using the Scalex Mustang chassis here is a little help.

 

The Mustang chassis need cutting front and rear as below.

The Mustang front axle also needs to be moved forward,this is how I did the cuts with a scaple.

The finished chassis look neat and is a better fit than the BA IMO.

 

I glued the RH mount back in place on the LH side and vice versa. So keep the cut neat and take your time.

G'day Phil.

Wondering if you've looked at the HRS chassis by Slot.It, and what would be involved in setting that up for the body?

I would imagine you could fit it under quite easily?

Regards,

Dick

Cheers,

Dick

A lot of us want to run the car against the Scalextric Trans Ams. Having it fit on the Mustang chassis gives good parity and it would be easier for Phil given that he does not make money from this but only covers his costs.

 

I think it would be easy to adapt a Slot.it HRS chassis if you wanted as there is plenty of room in the body.

Dick: You should have yours by now! It was collected last week. Have a look but I think the HRS will be too wide across the axle to fit. The BA and Mustang work well. The Mustang chassis certainly suits the class of the car. I can supply bodies with now mounts it you want to try fitting the HRS.

You may need to do some surgery on the HRS to narrow the track down. I have Dremeled one to fit under a V8 Supercar, but be careful how much meat you remove.

 

Prey tell Vinno

Does one have any photgraphy of this wonderous event???

 

I would be most pleased to plagerize your most inventive ambidexterities.

 

(Yeh right, can I have a look please Vinno!)

If you look at the front and rear along the sides of the Chassis under the Falcon you can see where I have narrowed it.

doing them for the price

 

Because I enjoy making them and I have covered all the costs and have managed to buy silicone and resin for the next project.

Phil - I've only just looked at this - do you have any left?
