Carter,

I tended to collect A LOT of Classic brand just because I found the "cool factor" high.   I was a HUGE fan of the Asps and Vipers as my FIRST production slot cars I ever bought decades after they were first made. 

 

All of the loose parts on display are all parts complete to build an entire Classic car ,or already put together as a complete car. I never had any intention of painting them .

 

I DO NOT know how "rare" all of the Classic parts actually are,but I have a tendency to collect them. (It was sort of an addiction..   )

Mike you have a very cool collection. I really like the 57 Chevy always wanted one. Thanks for showing

Mike 72, as if slot cars are addictive 🤣. Just keep in mind that there are no re-habs for it. Even if there were, no one would go!!!!!
It would be like saying " hmmm,I think I have tooooo many slot cars. Yah, that could happen.

I wonder if there was an article in one of the slot/model mags regarding the care and feeding off those rear ends  I'd like to see how a person would get a crown on.

The axle slides right out, the universals and axles are all 1/8.

AMT 1/25th Service Parts Kit, with leatherclad box and outer box.  Probably my favorite large scale parts assortment that I have.  I obtained this in 2010 from a toy store that acquired it from a Western Chicago hobby shop that went out of business in around '77.  The inner lid contains a service manual.

Edscars, I acquired some of those Dalxo tyres but, I don't have a clue what rims fit them. Do you?
That fluorescent tape is to die for! I've been doing it the hard way!
