| | Sunbeam Tiger Monte carlo '65'
I built this Sunbeam with a Ocar kit http://www.worldclassics.co.uk/ and a PCS.32 chassis, I did not want to use the hard top so I modified it using a C83 Scalextric Tiger windscreen and homemade roll bar .I have now added a Digital chip to run on my son's Sport Digital track with lane change http://www.scalextric.com
Cutting Chassis to size.
How I modified the body and cockpit.
Bending roll bar from 3/32inch brass tubing which is then soldered together.
Digitial Chip (C7005) fitted
Tiger Two Racing version, although I was pleased with the first chassis it would not keep up with the latest cars, so I rebuilt it with a Scalextric Porsche Boxer chassis it is now much more controllable than the old chassis, slightly slower on acceleration than the Boxer due to weight but a very nice car to drive on the limit.
I shorting the chassis by 7mm removed the outriggers, front chassis/bumper and a small amount from the sides on the rear. I then added vertical side sills to chassis to add strength to the join and cover gap between chassis and body. I then made up new body mounts.
