Greetings everyone!

 

I have always admired the 1/24 Revell Cheetah Riverside body.

 

Though the original body appears wide to me, I have always wanted to see a "wider" version of it.

 

So, I built this car for my wife and I'd like share my Cheetah Widebody concept.

You can see the difference in width from the Hard Body:

 

 

Thanks for looking.

Love this kind of thinking. The over head shot really shows it off. Well done

Hi Martin,

 

Thank you!

 

It took a few months for me to create that body to my satisfaction, so I appreciate the acknowledgement!

 

Hope all is well.

Very cool Ernie! So what is the red motor/axle carrier? It's perfect for your style chassis.

Hi Larry,

 

Good to hear from you - hope all is well!

 

That motor carrier is an NSR 1/32 inline motor pod for an F1 slot car - which I modify slightly for my use.
