Custom RC Hot Rod Build 🔧 Mounting The Motor and Making It Look Like a Big Block 💪 

Been wanting to do a hot rod/street rod style build for a while, so I'm very excited to share this one with all of you. I hope to demonstrate how the variety of STL files we offer can be used, modified, and adapted for many projects. Of course much more to come. 👍

80’s billet. 😊 Clean, mother of pearl white, tasteful pinstripes.

If you want to know how I would build it you need a little context. Around 1955 my grandfather was in highschool. The rule in the household was that the children were not allowed to own cars. There were a lot of kids, and that wasn't affordable. A highschooler was driving what I believe was his grandparent's car and wrecked it. It was a 39 chevy deluxe and my grandfather's parent's said he could buy it and fix it up. My great-grandfather didn't think he could fix it before the end of highschool. The rules were simple, he was told to not ask for help at all unless he was REALLY stuck. In an age before the internet my grandfather swapped the body off of the car and fixed it up with a hammer, chisel, hacksaw, and one singular lightbulb. I'm sure there were other tools too, wrenches and stuff, but no power tools. The shop was in the end of an old mink shed. I bet half of you don't even know what a mink is... The shed was cold and dark, remember no power and one light bulb! He drove it for the last two weeks of highschool, and had to sell it in college. He always wanted to get that car back but never found it. If I had that kit and some extra money I would get a resin body and attempt to recreate my grandfather's first car.

Hi nice project I would paint it a two tone colour blue.

Looks awesome so far....keep up that great work...

It is going to make for a fun build to watch. Can't wait to see how it turns out.

Another awesome build, can't wait to see the final results.

FREE JUNK??? Count me in! Okay, so I'm curious how the front end will go together. Can't wait!

I wonder if there is a different option for electric motors that might fit within a model kits engine, something smaller with similar specs- that could run the belt pulley assembly on a supercharger

I’m more of a ford guy, but this Chevy looks amazing!

What a cool model! You've got a new subscription. If I were to build this model, I think I'd go with the sedan delivery with the full hood.

Very very nice, love your videos there helping me a lot ✊💯👌👍

Dud, that's awesome 👌 👏 👍first timer on your channel

If I was the one building this hotrod I'd get them wheels gloss black with dark red body paint and drop the suspension just a little.

Love the project!

This will be great to watch. Look forward to it. Can you recommend a printer for the first timer please.

Years ago I was tinkering with making a motor driven belt system for these scale engines in my slot projects- I could see this working for rc as well.

Was wondering if you would ever do anything from the 30s . Great choice and keep up the great work 👍😁

You should make the steering servo look like a cooling radiator.

Still way more detailed than many 10th scale cars out there. Love the build. One thing i have always dreamed of is a 24th scale motor with the motor mounted inside the motor with rotating pulleys and belts. I tried on an 18th scale before and it was promising but there was a tonne of fab and this was before 3d printers became mainstream.

Freaking amazing

What a cool build, can't wait for the finished model. Just a note, this car and the van where realised as low rider versions as well.

Looking forward to seeing the rest of the build

Love it!

Very nice build. I've got a old metal 69 GTO model I might convert into a rc car

Hey you should try and make a hotwheels scale RC crawler, I wanna try and make my own but don’t think I have the brains to do it without a video to look at for reference

Looks like a great project can’t wait to see the finished product

This is looking like a very cool project. I am a patreon and a sub I must say I am a bit jealous of the amazing collection of RC cars you have.

Could you pleaseeee do another video on that prerunner build!???

The servo is going in place of the radiator, I thought the motor wasn't going into the engine because you were going to hide the servo in there.

Put motor in engine and use gears if needed.

FANTASTIC.!! 👍 👍 👍 You do amazing work. I only wish I had your talent, skill, patience, imagination & resources.. I thoroughly enjoy watching your work.! Stay safe out there mate & best wishes from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🙏 ❤️ 📻 🕹️ 🔋 🚗 🚖 🚕 🚔 🚚 🚙 🚘 🚓 🚒 🚑 🚐 🚎 🚤 🚁 🛩️.!

What kind of glue do u use?

Maybe it was asked before, but what RPM do you recommend to the N20 motors for cars and for slower vehicles like trucks or offroad eg a scale model Jeep?

What is the lowest tier patrion level to get ALL free 3d files? Thanks

Can u make a Ferrari f40 plz
