Check out TBucketPlans.com You can download Youngster's plans for free, or can purchase the pdf version of CCR's plans or a copy of Chester Greenhalgh's book that documents a budget built frame to finish.

If you download Youngster's plans, he is a member here and usually happy to help.

And Ben, doesn't RPM offer the bracket kit for Youngster's plans?

Theone,

Total Performance was purchased by Speedway Motors, in Lincoln NE, over a year ago - Can't remember the exact date.

I believe so. RPM (see header at top of page) offers pre-cut "weld your own" frame kits along with fully welded kits.

I moved this thread from the SUPPORT forum to what I believe is the appropriate location for this question.

I cut the angles for the kick at 60 degrees. This seems to fit the shape of the back pannel better than a 45 degree cut.

"I cut the angles for the kick at 60 degrees. This seems to fit the shape of the back pannel better than a 45 degree cut."

I cut mine at 60 degrees also, and for the same reason.
