Not 1:18 but.............

I thought you guys might like to see my latest acquisition

photo no longer available

I was looking for a 'bookend' for my USRRC spec Cobra roadster that I got from GMP some years back and got a great price on this Schuco model which I believe is from the same tooling.

The Schuco was sitting too high though - looking more like it was going to run the Dakar Rally than the Tourist Trophy race at Goodwood so I made a suspension adjustment

looks really good - at least to me.

Yes Frank, it is the same tooling. Great model.

And I was lucky to get it at a great price........

my only regret right now is that I didn't get two.
