The back of the bed is smooth with no inscription. I got the bucket used, seller claimed it was a total kit but probably when he blanked on who made it I suggested Total and he jumped at that. I have the Total assembly manual and my frame (now unusable) was made of 2X4 stock with sloppy welds. The World of Wheels tag is a round tag with lots of it worn off stuck to the top of the transmission tunnel about 2 inches from the firewall. Pretty sure it's not a TP frame or body and the tag was the first markings I've found on it. The body is painted a metal flake purple and I believe that is the color it came from the manufacturer with. I know, quite a few years ago, you could order the bodies already painted and the metal flake purple was an option from several makers.
I'm waiting on a new rolling chassis from Spirit and have my engine and transmission already painted up and ready to drop in. The weather is holding up the shipping on the chassis for now but that's OK.
In my earlier post about this bucket I was asking people about the correct angle of the motor mounts and since I didn't have pictures I got some really weird answers. After looking at the Spirit and Speedway chassis I see how the motor mount is a cradle while mine were a single piece on each side, welded to the frame and sticking up about 4 inches above the frame with the engine tilted back (like something you might see in an altered race car) so I was talking one thing and everyone else was thinking about something else. As we started to strip things down we found some bad welds, the motor mounts weren't parallel on the frame, the front axle has a 1/4 inch twist that made the car sit uneven and every where that you would use a shim there was just a pile of thin washers. It was a real mish mash and it was cheaper to buy a new rolling chassis than to cut off all the old brackets, grind the frame and buy and mount new ones.
I'll post pictures when it's all together and ready to run.
Thanks for the help and detective work.
