Hey there guys, I thought I would put some photos of my little side project :)

It's going to be a little metal hot rod with a "rotary" engine. All welded or soldered together. Will have working lights also if I can fit them in easily.

Crazy camber on the front :)

Won't be doing any this weekend as going to radio one, but next week there shall be progression as I have a week off uni. Need to find some taper bearing for the rears and going to make and old ford style body either from aluminium or steel

I've made a little bike for my dad before that moves and has working suspension :) all out of spare mini bits! I'll put a post of that when I get home :)

Feel free to comment and give suggestions

Cheers people. I've done a few bits more

And a front view

The "rotary" engine is now running inside some old bearing races and I've taken apart an old hub to get some rear wheels

Not sure what to do for the body yet but I'll think of something
