This listing is for ONE (1) UNUSED 1980 vintage Bachmann Bros., CHEVY CORVETTE 1:32'ish Slot Car. Not quite as large as a typical 1:32 slot car, the SUPERTRAX Road Racing system was among the last toys issued by Bachmann Brothers., Inc. 1400 East Erie Avenue, Philadelphia, PA 19124 USA. Bachmann had been around since 1833! Not known for its performance though, the home series 1:32nd line did not last long. The body is very well done & the wheels & chassis fit tight & look right! Great for display, probably best to look at than to race as it is an odd sort of scale with an odd pickup shoe placement. Only about a dozen different body color variations were made. 3/8" distance between pick up shoes center to center. Bachmann made a Black Firebird, White Firebird, Red Firebird, Cranberry Firebird, Red Corvette, White Corvette, Yellow Porsche Carrera & an Orange Porsche Carrera. Nicely done bodies were typical of Bachmann products. Although every vehicle has some smudge, rub, nick or age related detail, all are unused. Tires still look decent. Made in Hong Kong.
Originally powered by a 16.0 VDC. 5.3 VA. power source. Tires need to possibly be replaced for better performance if it is not a shelf queen. Original Set instructions are Shown for Reference. NO Copy included. Please feel free to print them for a handy reference.
