Made in france. They made 1/4, 1/5 and 1/8 scale cars. They were one of the pioneers of 1/4 scale. They made un-usual models. Viper, GT40, Ferrari, BMW, F1 and many more! All in 1/4 scale. Not many made it to the US. They went out of business in 97 due to tax evasion.

Yes, I have seen it. Problem is that Yankee cars are really not worth much. They usually sell for $400-$800 depending on condition.

I dont need one for a specific car. I collect yankee cars and parts. I prefer parts for 1/4 scale. Chain was used on 1/4 scale.
