A couple pics of the chassis painted and assembled. Still need to get a drag link in there and I may tweak the spring rates a bit more, but so far I'm liking what I'm seeing. The suspension is a bit stiff and doesn't have much travel, but that's pretty scale so maybe I'll leave it as is.





And here's something I'm open to input on. I need to determine a color for this thing. I want it to look like a vintage restoration so an older style and color is preferred. My only requirement is not blue. I always seem to paint my rigs some form of blue and I want something different! Here's some examples of what I'm considering. Let me know if you have any cool color schemes I should consider.
