Gramps46 Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Seeing the release of the Revell Cobra kit and the MFH FIA kit reminded me of the Revell 1/24 Slot Body Cobra so I thought I would share my vintage FIA version. This is an old build done decades ago using the Revell body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afx Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Very nice Gary. Those Revell slot car bodies are hard to find these days. I built a FIA Cobra in 1/25 scale using the Sunny kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it is a Bartoletti hauler but I have not completed it yet. The body was built by Mike Sells and I added an AMT Ladder Truck chassis.

250 Testa Rossa Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 If I ever build an FIA car, it would have to be CSX2259, which was driven by Dan Gurney and Bob Johnson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
