Re: White lady.. #buildthedream

Well things took a big step at Insane creations after the body was removed! Ron started tig welding the chassis up and we have successfully removed the chassis from the jig, I am able to lift it from either end so its not heavy and has some strength in depth!

I would sell the polo, store the bug and keep on rocco'ing! I am sure if you sold part ex the golf you could get something reasonable.

Re: White lady.. box swap and shop for chassis bit!

Things cooking nicely in the Insane Creations workshop! Body has been removed and the chassis is just about ready for a weld up, I have been waiting a long time to see it without the body on and first impressions are 'small' and 'cosy' lol Motor plate and gearbox plates were made and fitted also las...

I sat in the other day and realised how little space I have to play with. being around big yank racers so long left me deceived. be sure as eggs are eggs she will l...

Re: White lady.. box swap and shop for chassis bit!

Things are going a bit well at Insane Creations with the White lady. Its starting to look real mean now! The floor is all but done and we have been making up the funny car cage that goes around me within the car to give me extra security in the event of a crash. You have no doubt seen the crashes an...
