These were the last couple of tems on the chassis to be completed before final pre-paint priming/sanding:
It doesn’t always work out but I try to test fit everything before I have to worry about doing serious damage to paint. The snow flap required trimming to accommodate the TX bumper and I also needed to figure out where to drill the flap mounting holes. Flap isn’t the best but with a little cleaning and freshening up of the logo, it will be fine.
Last thing to do was to test-mount this curious piece. Apparently, it is intended to reduce the chance of the vertical hanging flap getting sucked up into the tunnel by the track by holding it further away from the track. I don’t remember seeing this on other sleds but it’s clearly meant to fit the chassis.
