Does anyone have the O/A dimensions (length, width) of the Racer 450s?
Thanks
EM
By chance I think that I just purchased one of the last of these for sale from the great people at Great Traditions Hobbies.
The length (Not counting the little yellow cone in the grill is almost 143mm
The width is 59mm measured from door to door.
When you bring the side pipes into play it becomes 62mm
Wheel track at the rear is 58mm
Wheel base from center of front to rear axles is 79mm
Note, all of the above measurements were done using a fairly cheap sears plastic caliper so the results are not exact as they could possibly be but they do represent the size within a half a mm.

Thanks very much. As I suspected, it is over-scale - just slightly in length (1/31) but very wide (1/27) or about 10 mm!
My suspicions were aroused by their use of a Slot-It sidewinder chassis - no way that will fit into a scale 50's sports-racer.
