As a kid, I did not pay much attention to the Strombecker range of cars, largely due to the fact that so much else of the time was quicker/easier to modify, and their factory finish/decorations did not encourage me to look any closer.
Well,.......many years later, I did take a closer look, and began to appreciate the quality of their molds, and figured with a bit of work, the could be made onto some very appealing models, and they did have some unique bodies, ones which fit in with some of our local areas club classes.
While I have posted some of these cars individually on various forums, I thought I would put them together.................( with the amount of "home time" I am spending these days as a result of our Pandemic, I am always looking for something to do, so , please indulge me in this "collection" post )
All the following run on either the 2 piece brass Strombecker "competition" chassis, or scratchbuilt ones.
