Merry Christmas to all!

I am pleased to report that ALL back orders for the Proto Slot Kits of the Ferrari 350P4 Can-Am and Porsche 908 LH have been received and shipped.

They look as good as I was hoping.

A second and final batch of these kits is supposed to arrive any time.

We have also received the kit # 3, the Ferrari 275/330LM, in two versions, both of the 1965 Le Mans, the winning red car and the second place yellow Ecurie Francorchamps car. This kit is incredibly detailed and has fabulous etched metal parts and its own chassis.

See below for new pictures of the Ferrari 330LM:

It is about time that someone makes these great cars, once modeld by Monogram and Airfix but rather poorly.

I hope that you will enjoy them as much as we do
Regards,

Mr. Pea

Correct and corrected.
But...

You are so correct, and if you look at the Prot-Slot Kit site, it says "Fer 350". But there is a simple truth to the "512" appelation: the 4.2-liter P3/4 engine was changed to a stroked and bored 6.1-liter early in the season, so the "512" was correct (512cc per cylinder, multiply by 12). However this engine did not work well and actually blew up in spectacular fashion, and the car ran the rest of the season with the 4.2-liter, hence the "350" name. So we are both right...

Thanks for the kind words, I am blushing.

The Lola T70 is for February.

It is sad that the Lola was not REALLY returned to its original spec with "flat" rear fenders and original rear spoiler and none of this front shovel... I guess the current owner has less courage than Big John when the car is beginning to fly...

This bogus Ferrari is really a joke, using the P4 coupe nose with the 1967 Daytona-winning numbers from the spyder, and the Can-Am tail from the 350. What a mess! Looks like the fellow was a bit confused, a typical trait of people with lucky new money and little brain...

The Morris Oxford clearly explains why the Brits came up with the world's stupidest traffic blocking device ever invented: the roundabout.
They should have stuck with cooking, at least everyone agreed on that one.

Hey, he's going the WRONG WAY!

I say, BOMB NOW.
