Ok I just got my new dragstrip Getting it in shape for the grandkids At least that’s my excuse but with them it will be a blast
Not out of the box yet. Grandkids are in Las Vegas and we live in Cincinnati. Kinda saving the opening for them But will post picks when it happens
I used to have HO Tycos, I am really not sure which ones. Once you get a taste of that King track, it's hard to go HO...until I didn't have any money to play on the King track!
Can't believe these n.o.s. Aurora t jet ch***is are selling for $70.00 each on ebay... What's the world coming to???...
The Very first sets of Aroura HO were a AC ******** type motor. I think I got mine Christmas of 1961! I was 8 years old. Later they switched to a more efficient DC type motor. I switched too getting a new DC transformer and four post terminal track. We would have a race night once a month friends even mom and my step father would race. I was envolved for a long time. Got my grandson some for Christmas maybe 3 years ago. dosen't interest him at all. Saddened me.
Just came across a Henry J g***er body while fumbling through some stuff... I don't even remember ordering this on ebay.. Musta been some years back. It needs to be painted and ***embled. I can't wait to get started on it... Here's some pictures I found on the net of what the g***er body looks like...
My wife found this in her late brother's stuff. I had no idea he was into slot cars. The ch***is under that gold body is home built.
Back up to the top. I need to dig out my old HO cars. My set was from Atlas I think (we were poor farmers).
Some more pics for you guys.... I also own a couple of early A/FX prototype ch***is from the 1970 and 1971.... And more Cheetahs in my stash.... The rest are from the internet....
