bbowser Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 I bought this glue bomb on ebay, it was advertised as 1/24. When it got here it looks small to me? Measures almost exactly 6" nose to tail. I cannot find any reference to a 1/32 scale kit. The doors are both hinged, the front and rear clips are removable, and it has articulated steering as well as an engine. Can anyone identify the kit? Thanks in advance!

I have the Union reissue. looks like whoever built it put the rear wheels on the front and one front and one Ford GT wheel on the back.

65slotcar Posted November 17, 2021 Share Posted November 17, 2021 i also agree, looks like an IMC kit. here is the 1/24 body by Fisher Model and Pattern. exactly 6 inches long. the car in real life is very small so makes for a small model kit.

Gramps46 Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 I agree with the others, IMC. The kit can be made into a pretty decent model. I made this one back in the day and just checked the dust and it is the same vintage.? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbowser Posted November 18, 2021 Author Share Posted November 18, 2021 Thanks for all the replies, I knew folks on here would know. I'm hoping to pry this apart and clean it up. These are fairly hard to come by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keyser Posted November 18, 2021 Share Posted November 18, 2021 Held together pretty well. Decals for slots on eBay. Nice find. Bet there may be spares here for wheels. Ask in that section. Fisher Chaps are great. Tamiya 2J slot body pretty nice too. Checked the dust??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
