Topic: Cool Board Cars from Alabama

Check out these photos and info I received from Kevin Raper in Alabama:

..."Just a little update attached are some miller type board cars I have made using the naste tires still more detailing to do.
They run very well and are a hoot simple 2 rail type chassis underneath with a 20,000 motor."

Re: Cool Board Cars from Alabama

What exactly are naste tires?  Bad, bad tires or the airplane tires from the 55's?

p.s. the cars are VERY cool!

Race cars are neither beautiful nor ugly. They become beautiful when they win.

Re: Cool Board Cars from Alabama

The NASTE tires are the airplane tires we currently use on the '55 Chevys.

I asked Kevin where he got the bodies and got this reply:

"I made a buck and pulled the bodys myself out of .020 styrene exhaust is a coffee straw lol painted up" - Kevin Raper
