Looking for two Pacific's for kitbashing, prefer that they run, but one can get new motor blocks. Can be a bit beat and missing a few things., but CHeap! Jerry

Well looks like the word cheap scared every one off. Come on Jerry just turn loose of some of that chunk change.

I guess you are looking formthe newer Pacific's. Later RJD

 

[Jerry Barnes]

Nah, either one.

 

[Greg Elmassian]

Jerry, were you wanting to make a Challenger? Seems the pacific wheels would be too big...

Regards, Greg

 

[Jerry Barnes]

Yep, they are a hair big, but not all that much, from what I figured out. Wheels were 69", so I rounded it to 6'. Times 7/16 you come up with 2.5", which is about what the Pacific wheel is.

 

[Greg Elmassian]

Wow, did not realize they were that big, but you are right!!! (of course you already knew that!!)

to convert to 1:29.... feet times 12 divided by 29.... or feet times 12/29 or feet times .4138

7/16 = .4375 pretty close... but rounding up to 72" and using your conversion gives you 2.63", using 69" and the proper conversion is 2.38" so there is really a bit more difference.

BUT, I'm sure it will look great!

Lots of pictures please!.
