DRIPTROIT 71 Posted October 25, 2017 I started this one a few months back. It's going to be powered by an Iron Lung (NHRS) Cummins, it will have scratch built Fabco rear suspension, with a tag axle and belt drive. Here's my progress.

The pulleys were made by gluing two AMT split rim rings together. The belts are half round styrene (round side in the pulley). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
