Something to work on for the future I guess.

I assume the chassis is your nice work?
BTW, I have heard of guys reducing 2mm arm shafts down to 1.5mm by running the motor and using a spinning Dremel cut-off wheel for their "lathe tool". Never tried it myself...

Those 1/32 Lolas are fabulous!

The chassis with the suspension details was indeed constructed on my bench. Sent to Chris who decaled and painted. I think I painted the driver though and added the exhaust pipes. Hard to remember because it was so long ago.
We did two of them with that one being the last of the open wheel cars. First was a Lotus and the second this one.
As you can clearly see the axle tube... that's what inspired me to go with the brass uprights and axle stub in front.

Just have a couple of shots of this nice '40 Ford pickup painted in my favorite Ford color of this era.
Don't know if this is a Monogram or not, nor even for sure what scale... 1/24, I think.

I compared the size of the guide flag to the width of the grillle. I'd say it was 1/24, too.
I intend to live forever! So far, so good.

It's 1/24 Monogram pick-up slot car. Original slot car. I'll try to find more of these photos. I think it's in albums in my Facebook page.
