This is how I lowered a Porsche' 906 in the 70's. I dremeled down the top of the gear plate & under the body. In those pre-cryanoacrylic Super glue gel bad-old-days I used aluminum tubes & plastic wood to repair body posts. I adapted the wheels from a Tuff Ones & ventilated the armature with the same dremel I use now:cool:

A flexi-flyer right out of a time capsule!

How cool is that? hahahahaha Neal, thanx mate....I dont feel half as old as Coach sez I am!

Pre CA ....LMAO!!!!!... assembled with glue rendered from mastadon bones and gusseted with sabertooth porcupine quills.

Do I remeber? LOL...What's that you say sonny????

From the dayz when the only thing that stuck to nylatron was yer burned in comm brushes. You'll note that I still REFUSE to use any glue on chassis mods...old lessons learned the hard way. I'll work 8 times harder fingering a mechanical fastener or use the soldering iron to weld things together due to those early trust issues.

I agree with RR. You sure got it sitting right, even way back then you had the "vision"! :thumbsup:

Gotta love that chassis. The 906 always looks better lowered!
