Rather than build a new car, I sorted through the neglected, poor performing & otherwise forgotten cars on my shelf.
I found this old Nash I built around 5 years ago....It's been through 2 motor upgrades & various band aid fixes
in the past....so I thought I'd have one more go at it......

Tore it all apart, soaked the chassis in acetone to remove all the old paint.
Removed a bunch of bits & pieces that had no business being on the chassis.
Cleaned up some solder gobs from leftover modifications & straightened some bent pieces.
Added a new guide tongue, & installed the 3rd motor upgrade..(a Jaws this time)
Trued all the tires , dressed up the engine compartment a bit & added a new rod or two
.
Stripped & sanded the body, added a couple of updates & painted with yellow Ace Hardware enamel over white primer.
Gave it a new stance, dressed it up with some similar, but new graphics, covered with a coat of floor polish & voila.
I like it now. It's a runner (Only took 5 years
