Fresh coat of Future too? Those cars are shiny! Good call on painting the chassis too. Those can get scuffed and look weird after a while. A coat of black gives it that newly restored look. I always love those toothpick tire markings. :handgestures-thumbup:

I'm not familiar with those Slotting Plus bearings and will have try them out sometime. Chassis with slightly bent rear bushing mountings are a pain to get sorted.

Thanks guys.

Yes, one coat of Future brushed on. They polished with Meguires Gold Class auto wax. The thing with Future is that it looks good stand alone, but a little polish really smooths it out and brings out the luster.

And yes, you need to try the bushings. Not the cheapest...but well worth it in my eyes.

It`s a eye popper H, beautiful slot car, and probably a favorite Fly of mine. I did a sorta refurbish myself, but went with the brass jewelry chassis. :dance:
