I have a bunch of these. Not quite as good as RRR but not bad. I like the chevy trucks he does. He also does some origial colors.
There was a guy selling them on the old hoslotcars list a few years ago.

Joe is a good friend here in Denver, I am probably the guy referred to who was selling his cars off the old Chris Jennings slot car center board a few years ago while I still lived in Kansas City. AS noted, Joe pretty much sells only at shows and only sells completed cars, he does this as a hobby not really a business and taking orders and producing cars to meet orders, shipping, maintaining a website etc would ruin it for him. He creates new cars as the mood strikes him, and he produces, or assembles cars as the desire strikes. He races with us here in Denver off and on and sometimes sells at our local races.
Now the good news to anyone wanting some of Joes cars. I am getting out of the hobby and selling off pretty much everything over the cpourse of 2005 to pay for a new 2005 mustang. I about 2 dozen of Joes cars, complete with mag wheels, silicones, some with white walls, all with chassis either slimline or tjet as the case may be. I am selling stuff for what is reasonable prices......a couple bucks less than ebay. You save the wait and the bid process, I save the hassle and cost, we can buy and sell at prices we both are comfortable with, cut the deal and be done.
I am in the process of downloading digital pix at home of all teh Furelli cars I have and should be able to forward these things next week.
In the mean time I am developing a spreadsheet of stuff I have to sell. Most of what I have is more common tjets in nice shape at sane prices, I have AFX, Lock and joiner track and model motoring cars on the sheet right now. I will be adding original tjets as I find time, as well as vintage AJ's race vehicles and tires, JL cars some rare riggen, tycopro cobramite and super 2.
My track was featured in the fall Model Car Racing magazine (Rattlesnake Raceway) and I since moved, my new track will be in an upcoming Model Car Racing feature. Once the photo shoots ae done, all of teh vintage faller, atlas, plasticville and Aurora buildings will be available. I also have 1/32 cars up for sale. I have a gross of vintage Model Car science and car model magazines as well as late sixties early seventies auto worlds, and a few hard to find slot books.
If you want to see teh spreadsheet as of today, email me at highcountry_14223@yahoo.com
Thanks !
