HI everyone, I have a few questions.

What do you use to make frames?What do you use to make 4-Links?What do you use to make AirBags?Where do you get your wheels/tires from?

Thanks in advance.

Ok...First of all...For Airbags I use two of the smallest O-Rings you can buy at the auto parts store and glue them together.
For frames, I built a frame jig and I use a miter box and a saw to get the edges perfect, and I use plastic stock you can buy from any model train store.
The 4-links are also made from different bar stock at the model train store. You would really be suprised what kinda plastic stuff you can find at a good hobby shop. Good luck and be sure to check out my model Chevy.

What kinda glue do you use?

And your Model Chevy looks good.
