looking good Dave. When you build the frame will you use the 1/42 size motor because of the small size or the body ?

Nice local history from Strangebrew.
Did any readers notice the sponsor of Kevin Thomas' car (#24) was Bollmeier Hobby Shop?
KT was the owner's grandson.
Bollmeier had a commercial slot car track in Belleville, Il. way back when. If my memory is correct, the big track was made by Strombecker.

"BWA, if you can get them"

BWA motors are still available from D'Art Hobbies. Service is often slow, but they come eventually.
