Tom Louis Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 By Monagram. A curbside build. One of the most beautiful racecars in my opinion.

65slotcar Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 i agree one of the best looking race cars . even though i'm a big time Ford fan, i'm also a big time Chaparral fan. got a big box of future builds. nice build Tom, look into Chaparral wheels by HRM Historic Racing Miniatures they look great and can be purchased at https://www.modelbuilderswh.com/pages/about-us Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Louis Posted January 8, 2018 Author Share Posted January 8, 2018 Thank you William, what brands are those kits other then Monagram, particularly the 2C and other roadsters?. I have a 2E by IMC, waiting to be built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
65slotcar Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Tom, the 2E by IMC is a tough kit to build and kinda small at 1/25 scale. Kits i like and have are 2d by Modelers, 2c by LS , 2f and 2e by Fisher, 3 small boxes to the right are slotcar bodies by Fein Design Modell, they are pricey for just a body but awesome detail and quality.
