Bought 4 slotcars at an auction recently in a box of Matchbox slot track...
One smashed AF/X 55 Chev Magna Traction, one AF/X Bronco Magna Traction without wing, one Tyco HP7 (?) chrome Lola 260 and one Tyco HP7 (?) car that says Blue Max on the wing.
All 4 cars have the standard crusty tires.
One Tyco has a bad motor, the other Tyco has a bad crown gear.
And of course each Tyco has a wheel that spins on the rear axle...
One AF/X is missing a brush spring.
Pick up shoes on all four cars are grooved...
These cars were raced hard. (The way they should be!) :lol:
But still not bad for $5....

Depends on what you call hope.
The roof still has the glass attached to it but it is completly ripped off of the car. Who knows what may happen to this...

Sounds like an automatic convertible LOL

No agonizing about making the first cut. Got enough of the pillars left to execute a chopped lid? Might as well make lemonade if ya got a lemon!
