This 1/43 dragster is a prototype, so I've been told (1 of 1). It was distributed by:
Specialty Diecast Co., 370 Miller Rd., Medford NJ 08055 USA, (609) 654-8484 - distributor for Corgi Race Image Collectibles and Racing Collectibles (no longer in business) and, I believe, made for "Mark One Collectibles" (no longer in business). I bought it on E-bay in mid 2001 and I haven't seen another since (I've been searching for an answer to this for years). I have no other information. Anybody else have any? PLEASE, HELP! :confused:

As far as I know there are a total of 9 variations of this casting. I think that I have all of them. They are
about 5 3/4" or 147mm long. They are as follows:

"Corgi" from top to bottom:
170 Radio Luxembourg (John Wolfe)
162 Quartmaster
Tom McEwen
Don Garlits
Don Prudhomme
Lionel

Ramchargers
Woody's Top Fuel

It took me approximately 10 years to collect all 9 dragsters. I do have doubles of most and even 8 of one of them.
Thanx, Frank
