Default Muscle project

Well i have made a quick plan on fireworks.



The plans are to make it wheelie off the line like drag muscle cars but make it still like a road car. I have locked the rear diff with milliput. I am yet to get a new gen1 but i only have to wait a few weeks.

Locked rear diff, High torque motor, 2 wheel drive, Micro-t electronics and servo, Big rear tyres, All round bearings, Hard springs rear, Soft springs front.

2 Questions:

Are the xmods drag slicks you get with firebird body kit same size as truck tyres?

Iv seen this made before, will 1/24, 1/25 body shells fit onto the chassis?

1.) fire bird tires wont fit. they barely fit the regular evo car rims.

2.) a 1/24 should fit. it fits on my stock f150.

Judging by the R/T emblem you have there on your "sneak-peek" I'm assuming its either going to be a Charger or a Challenger.

Coronet was my next guess, lol. I love those old Mopars.

To raise the rear, why not the off-road kit and only use the rear end pieces?
