Harvey Aluminum Spl. suspension

[lotus]

Hello. Just wondering if anyone had any ideas about creating suspension for these. I was looking at the kits at Hobbitime and they mentioned that suspension had to be created. Any aftermarket available? Thanks.

Ah, a model very close to my heart. Here is some reading material that should give you some help and hopefully some inspiration. I start with my first post about the car and it then goes from there and ends with Juanjo’s fantastic build over on Indy Car Modeling.

Hi Lotus
I go by Nesmra on this board and Offset on the Indy car modeling board. Please go to Paul's last entry on the post previous to this one. A few posts down there is one from me to Junajo on 01/13/2017 follow the instructions on that post and it will take you to a lot of good photos of that car. If you can do what Juanjo did you can't go wrong.

Terrific resource, Ralph. Took me a few minutes to find it following your above instructions, but definitely worth it! Thanks loads for posting it.

I also bought this kit from Calvin (couldn't pass it up at $40) for my "Someday, I hope" pile. , so any reference or advice on building it will be gratefully saved/bookmarked for whenever I reach that day!
