it's the backwards engine/trans with the normal facing exhaust that wrecks my brain

For the life of me I can't find the slicks for this one. May have to dig a little deeper.

Knew I had them but I broke down and decided to use them. The old style slicks halves from the 70s and early 80s. It'll do for now.

Yes, I'm aware I have to glue the slick halves.

If you can't find them I've got a bunch. The two piece tires are from a top fuel kit.

Thanks for the offer. Let me see how it sits once I install the body to the chassis. If they don’t sit right, I’ll let you know.

Decals are done on this one. Now to clearcoat it later tonight.
