I don't believe it, but WalMart has the new Christmas ornaments of the Nascars. There's a real nice Kevin Harvick "Shell" car.
What I need is someone to tell me how to convert them into slot cars.
Thanks a lot,

Last year I was waiting for some of these to go on sale after Christmas...
But I waited too long... lol :rolleyes:
I am sure it is fairly easy to glue body mounts of any type into these...

Had to hit wallyworld tonite and find em...
What I saw was Jeffy, Jimmy, Smoke, Dale Jr, Kasey K, and Harvick
And they still have the numbers on both sides!!! :woohoo:

I had to snag the last Harvick one, looks pretty cool, the Gordon and Stewart ones were the ones that got clearanced out last year.

Only a couple of chassis have a long enough wheelbase for them to fit a 440x2 pan chassis, and the marchon MR1 that guys like to use to convert diecast cars...

I've done a 440 pan with a tony stewart body, it fits ok but the wheels do stick out a bit...

And also built a Jeffy Jet with a custom extended wheelbase, it looks a little better with the wheels tucked in but handles a little wierd.

I'm thinking another 440 pan chassis... but might try using black HP7 wheels and try to tuck them into the body :cool:

Dang it. I can't get a good pic. My digital is on the blink so I tried w/ my camera phone. Not the best focus in world - so I'll have to figure something else out.

Only one year until the Tony Stewart Camry will be out then!

These are Trevco or Hallmark?

Here's the picture of the '07 Christmas ornaments I have acquired. Sitting on chassis ready to roll.

I gotta ask a dumb question here.

Are these plastic bodies? If they are, I'll try and pick some up. Randy.

Yes, they are plastic bodies. And they're easy to mount to the chassis. I just hot glued mine.
