INDY 500 SERVICE CARS IN 1/43

Amazing custom jobs on these cars!   Amazing that you could find all those photos too! 😀

I collected pace cars pictures for more than 20 years. Just to have the necessary documentation for the modelcars I make

1960 Chevrolet "500 Safety Patrol" (Edicola+Salvat/Ixo)

I put pace car decals and Solido wheels on a 1964 Mustang offered by Altaya to subscribers (2nd picture)

1965 Plymouth Fury pace car by Altaya in its "American Cars" collection

Wow....what an impressive collection!  Well done!

A friend of mine give me a 1978 Corvette pace car made by Ugo Fadini in its Cult Cars range.

This model had a big trace of glue on the driver side because the previous owner had tried to reglue the side mirror. This glue damaged the side decals too.

And the t-top was missing.

I restored the model and put some custom models on it so as to reproduce the original car. I still have to add the rear flags.

During the 1989 Indy 500, Pontiac had brought a 1969 Firebird to the speedway. This one served for advertising pictures.

So I bought the modelcar issued by Altaya in the "American cars" collection.
