I need help identifying a vintage 60's/70's 1/8th scale nitro car
Thank you in advance to any one who can help me identify what brand & year of this ol' ride. It's 1/8th scale. It's new, never had fuel or a radio installed. The engine is a Veco .19 with a coupled carb & exhaust butterfly......so you know this is real old school. The chassis is plated, stamped steel. The body is a plastic, Ford GT 40, which looks like it has the original paint on it. Here's some pictures. Thanks, Steve

That is cool. Bet it's a bit of a trick to control...I think you should pop some modern gear in there and get it going. Would be a very very fun muscle car to whip out when the 4-tecs are running, and since it's just a chunk of aluminum I doubt there's much to break.
