RPM Worlds on 91 Detroit Chassis?

Post by Synergy »

My plan is to take this RPM worlds conversion, clean it up and combine it with a 91 Detroit Worlds chassis to create a 2121 UK Revival entry. I think they should combine pretty seamlessly, am I right?

When you say “‘91 Detroit chassis” what exactly are you referring to? Do you mean the Composite Craft chassis which was designed to interface with RPM parts? With Kim’s (comp craft founder) passing I’m not sure whether those chassis are being produced any more so you’ll need to find an original.

Either the Composite Craft or NIX91.

I’m leaning towards the Factory Works CC version with alloy chassis and if you say these were designed to work with the RPM conversion that just about seals it.

Nix91 is very different from the rpm worlds. You are better off getting the factory works chassis set. All your stuff will fit on it nicely.
