Strombecker XKE Finished

Postby btaylor » Tue Mar 24, 2015 4:18 pm

All done, and full of fun! best way to describe a fifty year old slot car with semi modern underpinnings. VERY Smooth car, with lap times in the mid twelve's on my 80ft track, using 8.5 volts. three light coats of Future, and one coat of car wax.

Looks good Bob. Been working on trying to get one of those bodies. Can find the drop top all day long. The coupe is much harder to find
