400 Chief

[RandyP63]

I just added another project to the other Attex project that isn't finished. I picked up a Chief in Ohio 2 weeks ago and I have a couple of questions.

I am trying to repair a couple of major holes from a plow, I bought some of the plastic rods off of eBay. After I mixed it up, it stuck to the top part of the body but not to the bottom. Is there a difference between the two? My ST/300 did not have this problem when I patched it.

What engine covers will fit the chief? I called Richards and he quoted $1200 for a used Chief body with the cover. I know, I know, crazy.

Pictures to follow.

I wonder if you got really lucky and ended up with a poly bottom.

I think I did, what is the best way to patch the poly bodies?

Plastic weld with more poly or the west system buggyman used in his Bigfoot max II build.

Thanks for the help. The frame is getting powder coated, I have to work on the body this week.
