This may or not be a good score to some, but for me it was a great score. Seen 1 slot car for sale, with a generic nascar body. I figured the chassis would be junk as it was life like so I bought it for the body even though its not a direct bolt to afx but for $1 I could not pass it up. Well turns out it is an early life like when they used the Rokar "M" chassis!!!!!! I am already in love with this chassis. I LOVE the open motor aspect of this chassis like the older AFX cars. I am going to have to find some more. To bad I probably wont score like that again.

Nice find! The Life Like M chassis is one of my all time favorite HO slot car chassis. You can still find them around but most likely will be more than a buck.

Good score! A $1 slotcar is a good slotcar.

...and there is an adapter clip available should you want to try an AFX Super G+ chassis on it. Check with Viper or Harden Creek HO racing.
I always liked that particular "Goodyear Special" body. Man, the whole car for $1 no less! I've seen just the body alone selling for 5 to 10 bucks.
I have new tune up parts for a good price, PM me should you need them
Great score. Enjoy! -- Ernie :>)
