Hi folks, I have recently broken the guide mounting hole off of one of my Scaley Aussie V8 super cars, and as it is a set car chassis are hard to come by (Murphy Supercheap Holden).
I have tried the straight forward super glue back together method with no success.
Does someone have a trick or an aftermarket fix to get me going again?
Thanks.

Might try gluing and then adding a CG Slotcars adaptor or add your own styrene plastic.

Thanks for that Harry. I wasn't aware that these where out there.
Cheers.

A 3D printed guide flag holder is probably the easiest fix, before those were available I made my own using K&S brass sheet. The advantage to that method is that it can't possibly break. The holder is screwed and epoxied to the chassis.

That looks bullet proof.
Thanks guys.
