Slotbloggers,
A pal bought this Retro chassis via the InterWeb; he doesn't know, and hasn't been able to find out,
who the builder is. It is performing nicely.
I have asked Jim Lange of HiTech if this was his, because of the bulb cut in the underside. But it is
not his work.
I'd be pleased to know who the builder is, and to be in touch with him.

Just a guess, but Eddie Macdonald built some unique looking chassis when he lived in the Houston area. Better known for his body painting "Sprays by Mac", he returned to England to live 5 or 6 years ago.

My first can am and F1 were Eddie Mac builds. That car appears to be an entirely different style from what he built
I would have thought Jim Lange as well.

Nice build. Looks like they have a mill.
It has a bit of an UK feel to it.
Looks like a Gen 5 motor. I would sell more motors if they would wear out sooner. Lol
Side note on Eddy MacDonald. He went back to the UK probably 10-14 years ago.
