Several months ago, chappy had sent me some early F1 bodies. they were in pretty nice condition, and needed some kind of running gear. I decided to go my favorite route, and modified some Artin
chassis to fit the modified bodies. I now have a great start on my rear engine F1 collection, and they are all evenly matched power wise. plus, they are all vintage slot cars just modernized. Thank you again Bob, I love these cars! cant to wait start another one.

Very cool. Never thought of that with an Artin chassis. New inspiration!

Very COOL! You know I can't pass up vintage F1. I think these are the old Policar ones.

Allan, that would be very cool! And I really don't care what era, since I like them all.
preference would be vintage though.
Thanks all for the kudos! I sure am having fun building and running these.
