Rick, thanks! Indeed under closer observation, I see some differences...

If someone wants to have the original slot car magazine with the interview between Bob Emott and the editor - a very well known person in Germany is selling it via eBay (I copied it several years ago here in Slotblog):

The seller was none other than the actual magazine's editor, Reiner Gliss, who kindly donated the magazine to the LASCM library and mailed it free of charge.
Thank you Reiner for your generosity and enthusiasm after so many years! It will allow me to make a really nice scan for the new book.
I guess the LASCM will start issuing medals for donors from now on?

This chassis was picked up in a yard sale in Bloomfield/Nutley area. It does look like Bobs work? Or at least a copy? It had to be from Nutley Raceway to be from that area.
This has nothing to do with Bob...

Those HO chassis certainly do not show the detail and quality of construction Bob is known for...
Bob was the true master, the inventor, the creator, the inspiration for most others.

Sorry, did not mean not disrespect. I was really trying to see since this was picked up in that area "Nutley", someone would know who built it? Had to be a customer of Nutley. Looks like someone was trying to copy his work in HO was inspired by Bob, I thought i saw some of the bends in it anyway.
Sorry, Bob and all...

The only thing bad about Retro is admitting that you remember doing it originally.

Low CG pan stops and rear body braces to keep body off the tires.
