Complete slot car kits
PLEASE NOTE THESE KITS HAVE NOW SOLD OUT, NO MORE ARE PLANED.
At last I am going to be able to offer a small number of complete slot car kits for the more experienced modeller so now there is no excuse! I have altered some of my shells to take the excellent PCS32 chassis and added all the parts necessary to build a rather different slot car for home racer with a taste for the unusual! All parts (except the bodyshell) are bought in so are subject to available supplies.
Kit Details
All kits contain at least
- One piece resin bodyshell - unpainted, requires trimming etc.
- Body posts and screws
- Vac formed window unit (requires trimming)
- Specific or general purpose trim to fit vac formed drivers platform/driver and resin drivers head
- PCS 32 plastic injection moulded adjustable chassis
- Minilite hubs/tyres/axles etc.
- Sprung guide with braids etc.
- Mabuchi S motor
- Instruction/painting guide sheet.
- Appropriate ink jet transfer sheets
I reserve the right to substitute parts of equal quality if unavailable
Resin kits require more advanced modeling skills and are intended for adult modelers. However anyone who has built their own slot cars around Airfix etc. shells should find no problems with these kits very.
In common with most resin kits some trimming/fettling and minor remedial work may be required.All kits are supplied unpainted.
SCK/001 Triumph Dolomite Road Car

Images are of the painted standard shell, kit images to follow.SOLD OUT Whilst adapting to take the body posts I have considerably lightened my original Dolomite shell (well it was a little "over engineered") and improved the fit of the window unit. It is hoped later to produce a rally version which will include transfers for the narrow arch Dolomite RDU 983M as used by Team Unipart in the mid 70s. THESE KITS ARE SOLD OUT, however the standard body shell only kit is still available (see 70/001) and has been adapted to take the PCS 32 chassis for those who have their own chassis.
SCK/002 Hillman AvengerTiger MK2 Road Car

SOLD OUT. I have long planned a model of the Hillman Avenger Tiger and here it is.Modeled in its more common mark 2 form with front quarter bumpers cast in and seperate rear spoiler. This spoiler is VERY fragile being cast in resin and is not intended for serious racing use, just parade laps and display purposes. A set of transfers for the Tiger stripes, number plates etc. is included (experience of ink jet transfers recommended!) Please note that the Tiger shell is only available as part of this kit and will NOT be available seperately for the foreseeable future. The standard road going Avenger shell is still available (see 70/002) and features the body mount locations for the PCS32 chassis.
I will considering making a ready to run model of this car in Sundance yellow to order, cost around £75. No more kits are planed.
If you have bought one of the 12 Tiger kits and are having trouble with the transfers let me know as I have a few left over.
The Avenger was sold in America as the Plymouth Cricket although I do not know what the Tiger was called.
SCK/003 Works type Hillman Hunter

THIS KIT WILL NOT NOW BE MADE. I am working on making a works type Hillman Hunter rally car similar to the London to Sydney Marathon winning car but you would need to provide your own roof rack and 'roo bars! It will be a de bumpered version of my standard Hunter with the rally grill and some of the additional spot lights as well as the re positioned fuel filler. It is also hoped to include an appropriate transfer sheet. The standard road going Hunter shell is still available (see 60/005) and now features the body mount locations for the PCS32 chassis.
