I know some are into all out copies of real race cars.
BUT
What about the street racers out there?
Show us your stuff...

Many years ago we had a rich kid showing off in his track built Audi Dad bought for him and it didn't turn out so well on the street. It was the talk of the town for weeks.

Street cars
I’ll post some when I get home from work

I know this is about street cars gone racing, but I'd love to have this body to make a replica of Fireball Robert's Daytona 500 winning car.



I've already got the decals.

Thanks for the feedback. I thought it was a Strombecker. I'll keep checking Ebay to see if a project body becomes available to go for.

that looks like it's before he drove for Smokey?

[Mitch58]

Yes, this is an Eldon, Strombecker also made a '62 Pontiac but it had the tall clear top like the '62 Ford. The Eldon looks more in proportion to me. My older sister had the 1/1 version as her first car.

That 57 looks fantastic, nice job on that.

I build a lot of street cars. I like both street cars & race cars. Ive been thinking about sharing a few of my older built cars on the forum. I need to take some new photos so if there's any you are interested let me know. All are slot cars.
