hi Ken
i have built other Fujimi 1/24 to convert to slot cars.
but not one of these.
But the problems are essentially the same.
Fujimi kits fit together very well
the decals are top quality
used Scaleauto and Plafit chassis
Ive always found that getting the chassis to fit nicely on the body is the hardest part
once youve read the instructions carefully and decided
which chassis to use.
Youll be able to work out which bits of the kit you can and cannot use.
The gt40 is very low youll definitely need to assemble the interior first if
you want to use the kit cockpit part,
Get the dremel out to cut it to the right height
so it doesnt interfere with the chassis.
The other solution for interior is to use a lexan interior,
The motor section will need chopping about too.
As will the front underpan section for the guide.
The advantage of the plafit 1700 chassis is its quite low so a lot of the kit interior can be used.
The wheels from the kit can be used too by getting slot wheels with the right inner diameter.
any questions just sent me a pm..
cheers
Peter
