Default Neato Estate Sale findings!!!!

I didn't know what they were, but had to have them. *** tether cars and a dragster. Gas? powered and have little loops on the chassis to keep them from killing spectators I guess.

Scale isn't marked, but is the same size as my 1/18th midyears.
The '64 has no interior, the 67 does. Both have knockoffs!!

*** made those from 1964 to 67, with appropriate changes for each model year. All years came with knock off wheels and an interior. Unlike a lot of the *** gas powered cars and planes, these were sold as a kit and had to be assembled by the buyer.

The 64 was available in red or blue, or in a "race set" that included both cars. For 65 it was only offered in red. For 66, they came in red or white and for 67 they were all molded in black. *** also sold them with a Buick Riviera body and a XKE Jaguar body.

They were listed as 1/20th scale by ***.

I have the 65 in red. Below is a picture of my 65, and the instruction sheet for it.
