Abstract

In a scale model of a lowrider vehicle including a chassis and first and second spaced axles supported on the chassis, a lift assembly includes the chassis being provided with guide structure for maintaining the transverse orientation of the first axle while allowing movement of the axle relative to the chassis within a plane perpendicular to the central longitudinal axis of the chassis. A lifting assembly is provided on the chassis for lifting the chassis relative to the axle between a lowered position and a raised position so as to simulate lifting and lowering movements of the modeled lowrider vehicle. In this manner, it is possible to simulate front and back, side-to-side and hopping moves conventionally performed with actual lowrider vehicles.
