Jason, your exactly right. I didn't even consider this issue until I was putting the rear arms on. The original plan was to put some See's aluminum wheels on this build but that was quickly scrapped when I realized I had to go reverse offset. Right now the rear is at 9-1/4" and the front is at 8-7/16". Not really ideal. I do have a slant nose 911 body that has a flared rear. Might work out. Good idea on the CW rims.

I remembered this car from the old Hyperdrive ads, just never thought I would find one. I can't imagine it was a very popular conversion. I also have an Advanced Racing on-road conversion. I'll try to get some pics up. The front end is different but it excepts the 6-gear rear end. I wasn't racing on-road back then but these could not have been very competitive against an actual pan car.

these would've been run in a "gearbox" class, not against direct drive pancars. rc10 and jrx2 buggies converted to onroad...... stuff like that.

Here are some pics of the Advanced Racing on-road conversion chassis. The front end has a caster rocker design to adjust the caster of the front blocks.

WOW your builds are crisp

castor.

hey, any chance you could trace that front bumper for me?

Oops, thanks for the correction. That's a good example of me trying to do too many things at one time.

Not a problem on the bumper. Shoot me a pm with your email address and I will send you a scan of it.

That is one sweet project. Nice work.
