just signing into the thread.

I'd love to get ahold of a few of the classic cars. Owned a vega, buggy, sand blaster and the prop driven tether car when I was a kid. Also had the Testors beattle. With the exception of having to replace the pull start cables on the buggies every so often, they were a blast and I ran them for quite a few years. Handed them off to a local collector when I moved years ago.

My favorite was the Cox tether Mustang my friend had - had two lines, one for a throttle that looped back to the operator from the center pylon.
