Not a slot car but I know someone must remember this model.

 

Need car name and model manufacturer.

 

Trying to look it up but can't stumble onto it.

 

Thanks!

John,

I'll have to do research to make positive verification but I think the manufacturer was Lindberg in the '60s. I got that model for Easter as a kid and my dad was always looking for Lindberg models for me.

That's it - the Little Coffin. It's been driving me crazy.

 

Thanks, Rich!

I agree with Rich. I built one of those Monogram kits while in high school, which my younger brother later inherited.

I don't think you can blame the model for that! LOL...
