1/24 1976 DRM Opel Kadett
by John Cully
Converted from a Quattroruote/Fabbri 1/24th scale diecast.
This represents one of those ‘what might have been’ subjects, achieving very little. In similar vein to the 1970 Chrysler TransAm attempt, this car failed to live up to expectations. The men in grey suits thought that it would simply be a question of turning up at the circuits and being able to run competively from the starting flag against teams such as Zakspeed and GS.
Insufficient time (and effort!) was given, and the plug was pulled after one year.

Building the Chaparrals
Building the Chaparrals in 1/24 Scale
by Henry Trent
This collection includes Chaparrals 2A through 2H. 2G and 2J are on the way.
Chaparral 2A, Sebring 1965
This model began as a Cox slot car body. I added a Modelers interior and wheels and opened up the body for the exhausts, which are made from aluminum tubing. Decals are from Patto’s Place.
Chaparral 2C, Nassau 1965
The 2C body is from the LS kit. I opened the body panels and added mesh screens.
Chaparral 2D, Daytona 1966
Based on the Monogram kit, the early 2D also has wheels and tires from the Fisher kit. The intake stacks are from the Revell parts pack.
Chaparral 2D, Nurburgring 1966
This late version 2D is from the Modelers kit, built out of the box.
Chaparral 2E, Laguna Seca 1966
2E – This is the Fisher kit – build out of the box.
Chaparral 2F, Le Mans 1967
2F – This is the Fisher kit – build out of the box.
Chaparral 2H, 1969
2H – From the kit by Mini-Exotics.
