Ralph's spring steel chassis design can be assembled to several different wheelbases. Ralph has supplied these to many retro racing enthusiast. Building simple requires separating the various parts (easily done using a Dremel cut off discs) and soldering the parts together. The motor bracket is designed to fit a JK Falcon and similar size motors. The photo (above left) shows the rear of the main chassis to the right. Two holes are provide for body fixing screws, one of these is on the extreme right of the photo.

This chassis built up by Tony uses a 1960s vintage Mabuchi 13UO motor. It uses the middle option for the front wheels giving a scale 8 foot wheelbase.
