You are on a roll John. I like the looks of the rear motor bracket.

Nice chassis JJ !!!  Matt these brackets were originally BWA made from brass billet and were the basis for most of our chassis back when wer started racing retro here in the East.

Professor Motor & Paul Painter currently sell billet brackets for FK motors. Before BWA made & sold his, an Oregon club group (In Slot?) made 16D billet brackets for their Deathstar powered hard body stock cars. I can't recall if Paul Painter was involved with making these 16D brackets or not, but he might have been.
