I think this is a similar car as the Scorpion right?
Who is making adapter hubs for using the Thorp wheels?

Yes that’s right; it’s the same chassis as the Scorpion. And I don’t know who made the adapters…

They look very familiar to me. Sold a set of some pan car hubs awhile back that I couldn't identify what car they were for:

Even have the same tarnish stains. ;)

I'm starting to think GomachV identified those wheels correctly and the 'adapters' are modified hubs from the same pan car 8)

prp might have been more accurate with the 1/8 scale wheels. The hubs I sold were too big for 1/12 wheels.

Still have some hubs from that lot, with the same hole pattern and I think they're for Mini-Mag wheels.

Mine don't have that bead area tho, and considering phin's take on the size too.... I've just never seen the larger thorp wheels. Very cool tho!

These are just wheels from 1/8 gas cars.

Isn't that one of those tamiya technigold motors?

Hope that euro panther chassis is yours!
