Title: Figure 8 car revisited
Post by: Marty W on December 28, 2018, 01:47:08 PM
Due to the recent topic of figure 8 cars, I am posting a build that was first posted on Fred's site, based on 60s era SoCal figure 8 cars. It started as an AMT '41 Plymouth.

I would have never thought that anyone could make that car look so right. You certainly nailed it on that one. :)

Very nice one, Marty!!

Reminds me of the opening sequence in the movie "The Love Bug", which, of course was filmed at Ascot.....
