Look at the details on your track! And the proper old skool race cars too, amazing. I've got a lot of detailing to do still...

Dave,so far all my 34 bodies have been the snaptite mpc re-release cars,they are 1/32 and I think pretty close to scale'
that picture makes the flathead and front wheels look huge,but they are not. they are cheaper than most resins and still available,the 34 panel vans are a little harder to get,but they make great sedans.

I have a long way to go to catch up with Harry and Daves cars! but im kickin up dirt and closing in! thanks for all the great comments,once again,it is this site and all the great folks on here that bring on the inspiration. the pit row garage and all the readers tracks are my idea sources,coupled with my sick love of 50/60's race cars and the era in general. Next comes the animated miller high life beer garden at the dark side of the track!

I would absolutely love to bring my old sedans over to your dirt track to race!

I think they would fit in nicely with your vintage looking dirt track!!!

I'd have to put a little dirt on them to make them authentic looking.

The colours on that #22 work so well.

Fantastic track with all that detail.
