I was working on a new car last night and I must say it looks pretty good ,but I have a question . I took a Tyco 32 ford Vicky and chopped alittle off the front and attached a motor from the rough riders . Now the question is this I used the front bumper also from the rough rider and when I attached the rear bumper I also have the hole back there for the chute . Do we keep the chute or do we lose it because it's a modified now . What do you think ?
picture to follow tomorrow or tuesday .

Won't the chute be a separate piece that is inserted into a hole in theback of the car body? You could make an alternate part to put in if people didn't want a chute such as a license plate or sumtin. Then guys could have spare parts which is always nice. Go for Freedom of Choice - the concept not the DEVO album.

I can't make no
No decision
And it's stopping me
From my mission
And I try, and I try,
and I try try try try try try try try

It's just a Hutt's POV. :drunk::hat::freak::dude::tongue:

Bruce,

I personaly like the Chutes on the Tycos that have them. I paint them flat Olive mostly for my personal taste. To me, it makes me feel like my car is faster because, it needs a chute to stop it. Chute :woohoo: Chute

The idea of a license plate as an option sounds very neat Hutt....never thought of that but, would definatly break out my plate decals now and then if a plate was offered up as an option. Kool beans idea man! :)

Bob...Don't SHOOT but, yes Chute...zilla

I say lose the chute. For the end user, punching a hole in the back to add something is easier than filling and smoothing it. So better to pass the buck along to an expert modeler like you! haha!

And btw, what Id like to see is the stock style '32 Ford Roadster-- http://www.hoslotcars.com/cgi-bin/pic/x/ty8547r --modified into a stock deuce coupe, especially using the fenders from the stock Vicky (no spare tires). We could then hack, chop and mod to our hearts delight from there.

okay so far I like the ideas . The body has the hole now for the chute. Oh and by the way for those that like chutes that is one of the parts that I think I will sell alot of . 10 chutes for $5 plus shipping . Thought you'd like that zilla
