American Ron Guttu built this 1/4 scale replica of his father's IMCA sprintcar from the 1930s. That's the original car and his dad behind Ron.
And his finished model, that will soon be adapted to take RC equipment and be RC controlled. BTW....engine is a working Offenhauser!!

thats the gentleman that built the car. I got these pictures from his son. His father died some time ago but was a metal fabricator and hand built this whole car. Very, very nice piece. A real jewel.
