Any guess as to who made this 1/24 F1 car?
Cool chassis!
Thanks!

Did not work too bad with narrow tires. The 'Corvair curse' swing axle could never handle wide tires.
Ulrich made the suspension kits for both front and rear. I do not recall them issuing a complete car with body or motor.

No, Ulrich never made a complete car.
The rear suspension came with the complete chassis, using a pivoting front end. The front suspension/steering unit was only that, without the chassis parts, and is harder to find. They never sold both together. Priced at $4.98 and $3.98 at the time.
