I havent been buying much lately as I am trying to start to use up what I have   

But a couple of things caught my interest and even more amazing - I manage to win on e-pay.....

This has puportedly come from a collection owned and raced by the late John Harris, he of Pitman team fame. I assume it is true, but that is not why I went for it.

I just LOVE the really old school build here and he even attempted some detailing with those huge side exhausts.It uses the first run of Revells Corvette body, so I assume built sometime late 63/early 64. The car is HEAVY - I reckon double the weight of the cars I currently build from  old components of the sixties. He has mounted it on the side of the body at the rear and the front in the original post on the body, but has built in a drop arm. I think the chassis is commercial -possiblly different manufacturers for ths motor mount, and chassis itself.The amount of dirt shows that this was a well used car. I THINK it is a Pitman motor, and after a blow out with air, and some judicious application of wd40, it does rev well and runs at 2.88 amps at 10.8 volts (what my home made test bed will work at).
