So excited about this build. I would like to race it but it wouldn’t be to often because the tracks are so far away. Parts are trickling in and I have some progress into it. A lot of this build is first time stuff. Like making the cage mount properly, cutting out the body panels, and the wheels with hubs. There is some information on the build I have found online, but they are kind of vague. For example, the body panels. I accepted the challenge and dove in.
I’ll post details along the way. I’m open to any suggestions, so please feel free to chime in. I’m aware of the incredible craftsmanship of members in this forum. I have become a fan of a few of them myself. I’m prone to making mistakes and am open to constructive criticism. Thanks.
Here I added the M2C ET chassis and braces.
Just laid the Nomad cage on top to see what it’s going to look like.
This is when things started to get complicated. Took me some time(way to much time), but I finally came up with an idea for the body posts. I’m still waiting on parts to arrive. For the body panels I used a piece of cardboard and cut out the right shape and size. Traced it on a .25 sheet and started to cut using sheers. I still need to file the edges. The wheels became an issue when I discovered that the wheel nut that holds it in place barely fit. Then the nut driver is to thick to even reach the nut. Any help here would be greatly appreciated.
