Revell 1/24 ladder chassis used under their BRM & Lotus Grand Prix cars as well as the Lotus 23. Was also sold separately.

Lee, I'm pretty sure the 1/24 Revell Lotus 23 and Porsche had the slightly wider chassis with three body mounting holes in the back, not the F1 chassis with the single hole.

Yep my mistake, they did seem to come with the three hole chassis, I had to check it out though as box art shows otherwise.

I believe that's a 1/32 scale Revell chassis. That was my first non-home set car, an E-Type Jag.

I think that same 1/32 chassis with the 3 holes was used on the small 1/24 cars, the Lotus and Porsche. But don't have any mint examples to check for sure. Anybody else? Revell came up with a totally different chassis for their bigger 1/24 scale cars, using a blue 36D, the SP600.
