A few years ago, I found a site with some fully working miniature Chevy 350 engines. I was thinking it would be cool to have a slightly larger (maybe 1:8 scale) radio controlled model powered by one of these tiny engines. They even sound great; like a higher-pitched version of the real thing.

Those are awesome, but they don't have the longbed.

i remember those operational small scale motors, can you still buy them?

 

[ymatt]

I'm not sure. It was a while back, and I don't remember who was making them. Will have to do some research.

Oh they have a Red one too!

OHH I get another shameless pad

I picked up the Yellow one in March.

A repost? Oops. I did check first - that integrated Google search is half-ass. The old direct message board database search was way better.

 

[cegusman]

Oh! I got to get me one of them.



Wait I've had one for over 4 months

These trucks run the NP208 case in a '73, '74 or '75 K5. Wrong!

Looks like a slip yoke 205 to me. Either way, I agree with you.

I didn't realize they used IFS in '57, either

Might have to get some of the tire/wheel sets for the model collection though.
