Hello all, I am in search of reference pics of the Snake and Mongoose. (the blue and white rails)

Since these kits don't have a lot of detail, the engine would really benefit from some after market goodies!

Also, i'm not sure on this but I would think a rail of that vintage would have the narrow slicks on the rear as opposed to the fat ones included in the kit? This is another reason I am needing the reference pics. To sort out those types of things.

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks

Hey Dick, thanks for those pics! I am actually hoping to see some pics of the actual Snake and Mongoose rails themselves to see what color plug wires were used, the type of rear slicks used, etc. Just tryin to throw a little accuracy at them.

Ohhhhhhhhh thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I think that's the first time i've actually seen the real car!

Any pics of the Mongoose by chance? Or, are they pretty much the same as far as all the colors on the engine go?

Not enough differences to worry about, Use this photo for both.

Man, I never realized they ran so many different cars! I've never seen that blue rail! The one's I have like that are a red Mongoose and the yellow Snake.

Thanks for the pic!
