Hi all!
I'm new here! I know NOTHING about slot cars so I apologize in advance for my lack of knowledge in this area!

I picked up a large lot of Aurora HO slot cars and tracks at an estate sale. I have lots of tracks in their original boxes (I believe they are 1960s) and some cars from the 60s and 70s. Is there a site that I can go to identify the cars?? One of the track sets came with a list of cars but the only one I have that is on the list is the Corvette Funny Car. I believe the others might be earlier than that list. I plan on listing these on Ebay once I have them all identified. I will be happy to post pictures if needed. Also, I have a cigar box that has about 6 car bodies plus all the pieces to put them together. I feel like I need a doctorate to figure it out!

Thanks so very much!!
Carrie

Well,
probably the best way to identify them would be to send them all to me. :)

But, you could also try www.hoslotcarracing.com There is a bunch of id pics on there.
