Here's one you don't see every day. Made by Model cars of Missouri. Very unusual bearing set up. The user had to bend motor mounts to fit frame. Kind of cheesy. Instructions have the usual nonsense of the day like "The guide shoe stabilizer prevents dangerous wobble" Dangerous? and "Tru-Line is the winningest name in racing chassis".

Novel looking/sounding concept for a car..... there be snake oil salesman in them thar hills! 
Self aligning rear bearings? Sounds like a receipe for disaster 
Maybe the next big thing for Retro?
