AJ's Twinn K/Winnwagen 1/24 Mini Cooper body

Picked this up recently. Reportedly an AJ's body...polypropylene (Tupperware'ish???). One of the RTR offerings for the "International 32" racing class that never succeeded in the early 70's given the hobby crash. I think this one came with a white plastic chassis. The other Can Am style cars had metal chassis.

I think this might make a good mold master for a 1/24 Mini Cooper racing classing class on my 1/32 home track.

Think I've still got one of those somewhere in the basement. It may have had narrow, red foam rear tires.
If memory serves, they were sold by the original Auto World and eventually REH.
You may still be able to find one in Cincinnati if you inquire there.

Happy Hunting! -- Ernie :>)

I sent a couple of running versions of those to Harry a couple of years ago. the were from Auto world, and had brass chassis'. they came in a carded kit bag. Bought a lot from them back then! mail order, how times have changed! Used to call in my order on phone sometimes too. Neat cars though.

Mine definitely had the white plastic chassis. -- Ernie :>)
