I am a hobbiest who enjoys restoring old cars to run and sell. For instance, I have discovered how to improve the Eldon guide, a method I’ve never seen before to the best of my knowledge. I am also developing reliable, dependable and quality sources for vintage Scalextric... cars, unlike the American lines which are done piece meal at greater risks. When the slot car “fad’ passed in the US way back when and the US companies dropped out of the market, Scalextric pressed on and developed what is arguably the best and widest range of products along with the strongest worldwide distribution network; and now they dominate the world market with their fine offerings. My favorites/specialties are Formula and Indy cars along with Le Mans/Sebring/Road America type cars. It sure is hard to beat the Monogram Ford GT as well as the Ferrari 250 in 1/32 scale. These romantic and finely engineered racing machines capture and hold hostage my imagination and are what a racing car should be: Fast and Furious.
