Marx Miller Beer Lotus build

Had one of my many Marx friction cars setting around, and a few left over parts from several builds. Thought I would have some fun, and build a fantasy Miller beer livery car. Chassis is brass tube, with brass plate. motor is piranha, wheels are H&R, tires are my own urethanes. wheel inserts are AMT nascar, slotting plus guide, Resin driver figure from Monogram indy car. decals are from speedline , cut up a million ways to fit this car, as they were for an 80's Mustang. gears are 9/31 with cox crown, 1/8" axles, SCC competition braid. Love these friction car builds. what they lack in detail, they make up for in pure strength.
