While looking through my parts today I came across this Garvic 1/32 chassis for Bonner motors, part #3001. Hope you like it.

Ha! I have one of those myself. I made a Maserati Birdcage body out of fiberglass in a plaster mold taken from a 1/32nd die cast push toy. I gotta find that and take some pictures. In fact, there are a lot of old junker cars I need to get snaps of while I am unable to do anything else.

Yep, would love to see a shot of your old Birdcage Dave...
I have one of those chassis too Ed; the Bonner was one of the hot motors to have in 62-64 - really before I began any serious slot racing! I have found a couple old Bonner powered cars, and even built one a few years ago, based on an old Bob Braverman article in R&C.
And here's a little Porsche I found, kind of a "monocoque" layout with a Bonner motor...
