I decided to break from my other projects and work on this Tomy 1/32 356 Speedster, these are very cool kits with excellent proportions and metal suspension and engine, stainless wire side trim, and just very accurate. Hard to get but I bought several years back because I liked this kit so much. I am looking at the front Beam Axle for a way to lower the front end and adjust the stance to more race car like.. but being metal its a challenge of choices, cut the beam , modify the chassis or change the axle height, I think it will be #2 since it will look better all around.. more to come later...

Chris, Your 356 looks darn good to me. As for lowering the body by modifying the Axle height, since it's metal, can't you gently nudge each side slightly up to reset the ride height? Joel
