Haven't got the bill yet - I will be picking up the rest of the order on Monday morn.

SCOTTMO · 03-04-2011, 01:45 PM

Price would be different as you had some different parts,but should be close
plus i think i ended up misquoting ron for the brake parts,as i was thinking just
the frt,but that is my bad and i will stand by my quote...

Ron
that is a awesome pinewood derby truck...should be best of show...

I have been cranking on the truck the past few days trying to get it done for GG this weekend. Here is a few updates:

Since I needed to pull the axles for the brakes, I figured it was a good time to change out bearings.

Rick - look at the Vendor section - Captain Fab - makes some brackets that will help you. I'm not positive on size though, thinking 11" for rear. Good Luck!

**67cheby** · 03-10-2011, 10:21 AM

67series one i would stay away from those "DICK" brake calipers you mentioned ....LOL LOL LOL
