Bit more on this one and it will race ready too. This is one of the newer Marx Indy bodies. I think its a 1964 version. the rear two are older by a few years. This car represented the "Pancake" body style the Indy roadsters came to have. Although the marx version is fatter through the mid section than it should be, they captured the overall feel of the 1;1 cars pretty well I think.

That's what I was thinking. I had no idea Marx made any of this. I remember that they made some slot cars, but I never knew what they made. Bob, you are buried under resin casting orders, but are you considering casting these guys? I suppose what I am really asking is whether you made molds before you did the work on detailing the bodies.
