Fans of Chris Clark's terrific work have no doubt noticed a lot of the links in this subforum have gone dead. It happens, as much as I hate it...

I stumbled on a bunch of Chris's photos of his builds and with his permission will be uploading them here. It might even be possible to connect some of these cars with the threads were they were previosuly shown.

The cars in this thread will be all Monogram... and I'll put up one or two a day.

He's on Facebook and has been posting stuff lately. I would send him a PM there.

Chris Clark, but he doesn't post much slot stuff on his personal page. 

 

He uploaded the pics I'm posting to a Facebook group called Slot Racing Oldschool.

Any reason he doesn't frequent here as much? I remember when I joined the blog, I would search three people's work here religiously (Noose, Jarius, and Chris). Chris has that eye for realism.

You'd have to ask Chris that question. I'd sure love to see him again posting here frequently.

Greg, that's not a Monogram Midget, Strombecker maybe?

 

I PM'd Chris on Facebook, urging him to return, we'll see...

Thanks for the correction, Chris. The error was mine, not Chris's.

Most of the cars I'll be uploading here came from a Monogram Friday theme at the Slot Racing OldSchool Facebook group's page and I just assumed...

Actually that's an EJ's. It's got a modern Fox style motor stuffed in there, with a modern repro Monogram midget body.

Help me out here. All my good Ferrari reference books are packed away.

 

I think this is a 275, but welcome corrections. I am certain it is a gorgeous design and build, though...
