front wheels are hard plastic...no front tires. The slight outside edge provides low friction point of contact

Typical Mabuchi HT50 can, red wire armature....unique pinion

"Mushroom Cap" front weight, also retains guide flag assembly......some disagreement about the efficiency of this design...

W hy re-invent the wheel? Effective method of seuring lead wire--borrowed from Riggen? Note rounded edge.

Chassis, shaker and washer/spacer....Chassis material is thicker than shaker. Spacer fits between chassis and shaker...

Some thought given to the stamping of flat stock brass to yield desired features...Note asymetry of the rear axle uprights.

Formed recess channels for mounting body--also asymetrical.

Guide Flag Assembly....folded brass strip, pressure fit attachment--slides in and out

Rear wheel and axle...wheel/gear assembly is one piece

Typical body style..see the catalogue of all body styles...

Proper COLLECTOR packaging....
