A while back our slot car group wondered if 1/25 scales cars would work on one of our larger club tracks. We ran into a dozen 1/25 static bodies at $5 a piece. Our club bought the lot.

I found a badly pre-painted and assembled kit for $5. It would make for a quick test-car. No need to wait for the paint to dry. But the paint was quite bad.

   

The slot car passed the test. But the paint was wearing me down. Off with the paint. The rebuild begins.

   

I found a Chevrolet poster from 1965 that showed all 15 colours being offered that year, and picked one.

   
   
   

We raced again today. The other three cars belong to other club members. Only the yellow Impala is mine. These big cars are a hoot!

   
   
   
   

Thank you very kindly for looking.

Love it! - and what a difference the colour makes.

They're all superb but the yellow one stands out for me

I humbly thank everyone for the positive comments and likes. 

Here's a collage created by the host from last Saturday at the track. The yellow Impala is my hunk "O" junk. The other nice cars belong to other club members.

Those cars date from a time when it was common for them to have real colours. Not just black, silver or white as is the case today.
Thanks for sharing.

Quality every one of them. Thanks for sharing this is right up my street. I wish you were my next door neighbour Ken

[KensRedZed]

I humbly thank you Pip and Tony.

Yes, I wish you were all my neighbours! Let's go racing!

Don't take this the wrong way but they all look the same to the untrained eye
