Dave B Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Well I've finally finished my two Lister Knobbly's. They're only curbside but sit well with my other 50's sports racers. Having started with a single ratty fibreglass slot car body I'm pretty happy. The green and yellow car is my interpretation of Archie Scott-Brown's last win in a Lister before his first ever loss to another Lister, driven by Masten Gregory, then trying to stay ahead of Masten at Spa and crashing fatally. The burgundy car is a fictitious Chev powered American racer. Both are finished in auto acrylic. Tks for looking Dave B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bernard Kron Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 They look great! Did you pull a second body from the fiberglass plug? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Bernard, no, I did a lot of work to the plug and put it into silicon.

ShawnS Posted March 29, 2019 Share Posted March 29, 2019 Just brilliant work Dave. They may look simple but it's quite obvious that a lot of work goes into your builds and your knowledge of the old style sports racers also shines through in the final result. Well done.

Pete L. Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Great job on both of the builds. I always liked the Listers, I hope to put together a slot car soon based on an ASB car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
