Another thingie car finished.... The body is a Viper-Noda by Raynoda Dreamwerks, it's a modern take on the Classic Manta Ray. A very busy all brass frame and of course it is powered by a monster John Havlicek H-Power motor!

  As usual, a very nice build!  How can this body be obtained?

Caveman Bodeez has several vintage body designs in this style, and one that's really close to the original Manta Ray except for having 8 velocity stacks where a front engine would be. http://www.cavemanbo...bodies/vintage/

Thank you. I've had this one for quite a few years now but I believe you can still get the body from Ray Fellows here on Slotblog.

These days, you're more apt to see Ray Fellows on Facebook than here. He had taken some time off from pulling bodies. I'm not sure if he's started again or not.

Marinko,

That paint job is fantastic and the chassis is a work of art.  Very unique design. Can you tell that I like it?  :D
