As many of you know
TDR
has been working some long headscratching hours to bring you our first multi-media kit......
It's the TDR
Roadster!
We've asked Sydney Deem to build a prototype along with TDR
's Tim for photos and to work out any remaining gremlins so that we can make running changes if needed.
This way we will be able to provide you with the best kit we possibly can.
The kit will be as complete as we can make it. Bumper to bumper, things like a real wood steering wheel, pre-cut aluminum interior panels, material for carpeting, all the suspension pieces, wheels, tires and as many other goodies as we can produce will be included in the complete kit.
Tons of time, effort & coins have gone into producing this kit....we are doing everything we can to keep the cost to you as low as possible and will even offer the kit in stages so you can purchase one assembly at a time as your budget and build time allows.
The engine will be a 427 side oiler.....thanks to Tony (another TDR
partner).
Tim did the chassis & all the suspension work so you know it's top notch as well.
Once the body had cleared Tim's keyboard it was done in RP
. It then went to the old master the "Madd Fabricator" for assembly and many hours of fine tuning and finishing. Anyhow...here's a few pics of his master for you to run your orbs over.....M.F. now faces the task of making the multi piece molds as the body will be hand laid up in fiberglass which has untold advantages over
resin
for a body this size.
Watch this thread for Syd's build up of the prototype and more information on the kit as it progress.....you'll get a first hand look at what goes on behind the scenes at TDR
.
As always, your input, comments and questions are not only welcomed but encouraged.
