 | | New MOC: Car chassis —Alastair Disley
|
| | | This is my attempt to compress the features of classic car chassis into a much smaller one, to hopefully fit inside 14 wide model cars. It's still a bit wider than that, so ideas for further compression are welcome. It features a V6 engine, gearbox (...) (21 years ago, 17-May-03, to lugnet.technic)

It reminds me of my little sports car (See Cool New MOCs page), which the hardest part was fitting all those mechanisms in that tiny car... and creating those mechanisms from other parts (problem that I think I'm the only one who has (...)

Yes - the problem was not the width of the rear axle (it should be possible to shave off abother 2 studs there and retain independent suspension) but the steering mechanism at the front, with the wheels against the cylinder block on full lock.

I don't really think it would affect the realism of the model. Actually, if it's not (...) (21 years ago, 6-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic, FTX)

I was originally designing it to go inside an E-type model, so a V6 or V8 would be appropriate there. I (...) (21 years ago, 11-Jun-03, to lugnet.technic)
