Post some pics of the cars - are they in good condition or need some work? Congrats on the find! PD2:thumbsup: oldraceral 08-20-2006, 11:21 PM Yeah, I went rummaging Saturday, too. Found a Strombecker Monza set missing the cars for a buck. Great looking box cover. Got it home and looked at the track, there's 15 curves and only 2 straights. And the Monza curve is there, but no transition track. Oh, well, for a buck it was worth the rush of finding slot car stuff. noddaz 08-23-2006, 09:15 PM My son has been playing with the track (I haven't had a chance yet...) and reported to me that 3 of the four cars did not work... *sigh* But it turned out ok. He worked on the 3 duds and figured out for himself that messed up braids were what was keeping the cars from running. :thumbsup: He straightened the braids and has had all four cars doing laps...
