Chaps
Hope you are all well.
Bin a bit quiet because I have too much on my cutting mat!
What with Long Beach around the corner, and after a gentle nudge from a certain someone on the forum,
I thought I would post this. Still a bit reticent about what is a slot car on here.
But then one cohort told me to think of them as scale models that can move.
Quick bit of info.
Chap I know in California is starting to produce 1/32 shells and chassis of 1983 F1 cars.
He is getting stuck in to doing virtually all of them.
He went to the LBGP back in 1983 and fell in love with those F1 cars of that era.
Being me I took a prototype resin shell of his mid season Ferrari 126C2b and retro fitted it
to the LBGP version and sent it back to him.
The process and finished article here.
Hope its a memory jogger for some of you and I am told that it will be the Indycar Historics at Long Beach this year.
Wish I could go.......
Finish on a fun shot. It did not end well for the Number 27 Ferrari that day.......
