Very cool, of course today we dont have to worry about runtime and the cars are already underweight so the paint is not an issue. Heck back then you did'nt dare to take even one practice lap or risk not making the 8min .

I dont have any as old as some but here is my small colection of old rides

Sorry Doug, I didn't mean to stick a "huge knife" into your still healing wound.
But I am trying to carry the Delta torch and putting some of these cars back on the road again. I hope you can forgive me.

Not exactly "classic" or "vintage". It is no more vintage than my Kawada M300RSX. That is unless you consider all T-bar cars to be.
