Wheel position dimensions please.

Hi guys, can someone help me with some dimensions please? I would like to know the following:-

1. From the front top of the sill to the front wheel centre.
2. From the rear top of the sill to the rear wheel centre.
3. The length of the top of the sill.

Thanks in anticipation, having these measurements will assist me greatly. I know different kits and setups will probably have different measurements but it would help me if I could establish a range for wheel clearance and wheel base.

Regards

Russ

Dimensions on my Tornado are

1 = 14"

2 = 15 1/4"

3 = 66"

That assumes that I built it correctly !!

Thanks David, those dimensions will give me something to go by. I'm sure your build is spot on [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Welcome to the forum.

Anyone know how these dimensions compare to an "original" car or other kits? I seem to remember someone saying that the bodies on some kits were quite a bit different to the real thing. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]
