cool, I have an old turbonique axle pamphlet somewhere, really a neat and effective part. Nice execution on an out of the norm model.

The pamphlet may show this car as it was featured in their advertisements of the time.

DR Jay,

I have done a Mustang Turboniques car that has been shown around several of these sites and contest coverage in the mags over the years. I THINK I may do one more before I pass into the Hobby World in the Sky.

Jesse,

Where can I find a copy of this mag? I think this is the first time I've heard about it. If I can't get the mag itself, any chance of you making a copy for me? I'll cover all expenses.
