Road Trip 1/8 Scale Finds

Post by a01butal »

Went north to a hobby shop that turned out to be a real find. Couldn't believe when the owner said they had an old Dynamic and an Associated 1/8 scale car. Well he was correct about the Dynamic but the Associated I knew right away was a Delta but I wasn't there to correct the record. Long story short Dynamic is the entry level pressed steel chassis model with the Orbit radio gear that seems to have seen its better day, Veco engine with Dynamic intake stack heatsink. The Delta is a CK790 or CK800 not sure of whichand has a Picco engine with a really old school Delta heat sink which I really like. Hope you like them as well as I do, Dynamic will be on eBay within the week and the Delta is a keeper. Hope you like them as it was a great day for me.

Dynamic Veco powered Porsche color impregnated Dylon body circa 1970/71
