 Spark/ Redline has extended its completed models line with some very well build 1/24 cars of which the DBR9 is one (others are the Corvette C6R and the Redline F575).
It is almost a shame to convert these into a slotcar (almost impossible too) but it can be done.
Hefty pricetag is a big handicap, but the model is worth every penny. |
