So, skip forward 43 years and I've acquired a trio of BRM slot cars and a Monogram Lotus 33, but I can't find an Atlas Brabham, to say nothing of a Supershells model, and even if I could, I wouldn't know how to convert it to the potent hot rod BT19.
Chris suggested that he might be willing to give it a go. From what I had seen of his work, I had no doubt that if he did, I'd be the proud owner of a true collector's item.
Needless to say, I'm really pleased to have this car in my small collection. What's even better, is to have had the opportunity to learn more than a few insights from Chris. It's a real treat to have folks like Chris willing to share some of their knowledge both of the art of scratch building as well as some of the history of the cars of that golden era, with rookies like me.
So here's the car. I trust that the creator of this work of art will find some time to tell you how he did it.
