Adventures with Lexan

Are the chassis on the Matich, Lotus 30, and King Cobra made of white metal, or aluminum?

Thanks,
Ken

Hi Ken, The early Dynamic chassis bits  (all of Anthonys' cars) were cast aluminum, and in the mid 60's there were probably more Dynamic build up chassis' running around the commercial and club tracks than anything else combined.

They made motor mounts/axle holders  for every motor you could think of, as well as guide tongues, body mounts, etc.,....all you needed to do was screw them together.

In the mid 60's you had to be a very decent builder to scratchbuild something that would outrun  a well sorted Dynamic.

Dynamic produced a couple of anglewinder brass 1/32 and 1/24 chassis in the very late 60's, but by this time, there were other better handling chassis on the market, and the Dynamic brass chassis were far less popular.

Cheers
Chris Walker

This is a 1/24 chassis put together using all original Dynamic bits.........this one an inline mount for a FT16D.

Almost as soon as the Dynamic bits came out, builder were making their own brass pan assemblies to enhance the Handling......here is one I built, using a much modified 26D in a sidewinder configuration.
