Well lets try this again.Will be building the Rookie car of Carl Edwards "The Shop Rat" Using the 04 Tarsus kit.Have the body done Thanks to Hillbilly Graphic's for some awsome decals.

Here is the chassis i will be using.I didnt build it. Had to do some cutting on the spindle assembly.

Next thing to tackle was the rear end assy and Trailing arms.Here is some shots of stock kit pieces.

Most people overlook the AMT rear. You can see the cut lines where the housing will be cut. Use a 1/8 drill bit to open the hole up some.Next will be to use the .125 tubing for the tube guide.Remember on axle on the 9" is shorter than the other.Then use 3/32 tubing to use for the axle tubes.Here are some shots of different points in the Mod's.

WOW thats nice :))) wnw

looking good i think its headed in the right direction :)))

Thats lookin good Jamie. And I Totally Agree with what you said about overlookin the AMT Rearend's. In Fact, we do the same thing to them you and I. I use em in all my mod build's

Like your engine... did you make them pullys? I want some!

Looking real good so far, Jamie! It doesn't take a lot of money to detail if you can make the details. And a lot of stuff can be made from odds and ends around us!

Keep it up!
