Hi all!

Just found this box back in the closet, found these '60s (I think) gems of aluminum 1/24 scale chassis. Don't really know who made them, maybe Cox for the very dirty one and maybe Champion top right.

Anyone out there know what these really are?

Many thanks,

Ted

Steve has nailed the two Cox chassis on the bottom. 

 

Top photo, left to right: MPC with their special brake (weight on a lever wraps a string tight around the axle!); the MDC "Pink Panther", with hypoid gear setup; and, hmm, thought this was a Testor, but the swing arm and front end are different.. not really sure about this!

 

The one at bottom right is a modified Revell 1/24 chassis.

The lower right looks like a late '60s Revell 1/24 scale.

 

Upper left has an added Dynocharger swing arm brake.

 

I used one of these weighted toggles to actuate a Chaparral "flipper."

Huh, I have one of those hypoid chassis but didn't know it was MDC. Thanks, Don !
