Knex Car - Big Rims Monte Carlo
One of my Best Knex Cars got recreated with Bigger Rims. I leave the option to anyone building this to add Electrical Tape to the Rims.
I had the idea of making a Knex Car with big rims when I was driving home, on my way I saw a red 60s car lifted with the biggest rims hugging the inner fenders, it looked nice, the guys had to climb up to get it, really funny watching that. I modified the original Monte Carlo I've built before on here, it took little time lifting it, and adjustments was made. Last year this was ready for Instructables, but I changed the body so it didn't look the same with Bigger wheels, I did compact the car to make it shorter in length.

Building the Base
Floor board is the base of the car
Engine
I didn't change this from the first post, when completed, just tune the engine so it moves and spins freely without getting stuck.
Steering System
This model does have fully working steering, I even made sure the wheels don't grind or touch body parts.
Front Body Parts
Adding the body is done in layers,
Rear Axle
Split rear axle, built durable for knex, this is complicated if not following images.
Rear Body Parts
Just Simple.
Seat and Roof
Finishing Touches
Add Wheels, Doors, Done.
