This is a scratchbuilt model slot car of the Stebro Mk IV, an obscure F1 car that ran in the 1963 US GP at Watkins Glen. Body made from styrene, parts of an old slot car body, electrical conduit pipe, nylon  Glue bomb and it ain't even done   Attaching windscreen  Ready for assembly  Almost there...  Off to the races     |

Excellent work! You've captured the shape of the restored car perfectly. You even have Peter Broeker's grimace on the figure  You know I have a soft spot for these cars. |

...Broeker's grimace...LOL!
Before taking the photos, I thought about dumping some motor oil on the track to simulate the Stebro's fouling of the '63 US GP practice session, but Broeker's pained expression is enough realism for one day.
Thanks guys for the kind words!
