WELCOME

Welcome,

 

A while back, about six years ago, on a trip to the local mall I happened to pass a hobby shop window that had a SCX slot car set on display.  Being unfamiliar with SCX I thought the owner had set up a display of a race set from the 60's or 70's.  On entering the shop I discovered how wrong I was.

For Christmas that year my wife bought me a SCX set.  That first set was replaced by a Scalextric classic/sport and that in turn replaced by my current 80 feet of Carrera.

For some reason purchasing RTR cars has never caught my interest.  Although I do have a small collection of about 25 RTR cars.  However collecting up a pile of parts and building my own cars is a whole different matter.  On these pages you will find some of the slot cars I have built.

I enjoy building both 1/24 and 1/32 cars.  I build my cars as I see fit.  Color, decals, details, these are my choice as the cars are part of my racing team.

Current Update:  1/24 Revell Corvette and new chassis pictures on Chassis page

Current Projects:  1/24 AMT 69 Corvair
