fordcowboy,

You gotta nice pair of slots cars there man!! These are some quality build ups for sure. When you see these 2 cars together like this...POP! Sparkin' up the old race days is great for the membrain.

Thanks for sharing these pics as it brings back great childhood dreams and memories for me.

Cowboy are those Sizzler rims in the rear? Sizzler rims used the same fronts as the first redlines as they pop off and use black like mini rubberbands for tire tread. I always used to run my Sizzlers in our tub (Empty of coarse)...those were the days! :)

Bob...Snake vs. Mongoose is Old School Kewl...zilla

Lendell,
Two nice customs! Just throw in a Sox & Martin GTX and RAMCHARGERS Plymouth and you'd have one heck of a reunion. Love them MOPARS! :)

Calm down Wes...... ;)

:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup: Dave

very nice!

Boy do those bring back some happy memories. Thanks FC!

Cowboy-
Great nostalgic cars. What a marketing ploy. Everybody knew the Snake and Mongoose dragsters. Great decals on those cars.

Very Nice! I still have the Snake, and the Snake rail version matchboxes. (Rescued from parent's basement in early 80s while searching for Baseball cards) Decals are in bad shape, anybody make NOS?

Cowboy, I saw you featured on another network. I liked them there and I like em here!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup: Out of the past racing!!! ... RM

Thanks to everyone for their nice comments.
Randy - I'm expecting to you to come up here during the fall St. Louis show.
