Default RE: Cox Powered cars coming back

There is quite a difference in the Indy cars produced by Wen Man/ Testors and the Cox Gurney Eagle. I'm currently preparing a Cox Gurney (upright engine version) to run. I'll give you a report on how it goes!

The red 'Gurney' car is quite rare, it was made in 1970 only, and not many were produced. The blue Gurney is the first version with the side mounted engine and magnesium engine carrier and wheels.

By comparison, the Gurney is somewhat larger than the Testors model, and technically more interesting (IMHO).

Toys are good!!!
