The last time I was in that old toy/ coin store in Oregon City, he had about 3 vintage 1/24 slot cars in his display case if anyone is interested. I didn't pay much attention at the time. I was looking for something else.

Re: tires (3 replies, posted in Modifications)
John, if you go to his online store you can get the tires made for that car. That being said, I ordered some last month, he sent them but included another set with a note that he actually prefers them on his own car. Let me know if your order doesn't fit I still have the ones in his online catalouge for that car.

Re: NASTE Odd Thursday Night Racing Rules & Current Thread (2,125 replies, posted in NASTE)
Just when I gave up on my historic F1 and bought a Vintage F1, I'm digging around in my junk box at the far end of my workbench and I find some abandoned chassis with Slot it axles, a small gear and some steel insert wheels. I put them in my scalextric Ferrari. Wow, smooth fast and quiet. It's no longer legal due to the wheel change, but it is sure fun to drive. I think it is almost competitive with the vintage class. But now with the slightly smaller tires it looks more like a midget racer than an F1.

I got it from a guy in Seaside, it said it was "New Old Stock" for what that's worth. Everything but the body sure looks new. There was a separate box for the motor, it looked like it could have sat on a shelf for 50 years, it was yellow enough.

I don't know anything about this style of chassis or motor, but I guess this is how you find out.

Still trying to figure out how to upload photos, this might work, then again maybe not.

It came, it runs, it doesn't get any better than that. Well, with better tires it might get even better.

I managed to find two. The first is a beat up looking GT40 body on a K&B chassis that's supposed to be "new old stock", the other is an AMT body on a Strombecker chassis. Just what I needed another Bonneville.
