This listing is for ONE (1) New Old Stock, 1991-1993 Un-Used UN-Released TYCO Toys, Narrow-Pan-Style, Body-Only, of a Valvoline STP Toshiba Indy F-1 in HO Scale.
GREEN BASE PLASTIC IS VERY FRAGILE & NOT RECOMMENDED FOR RACING. Listed in the Esposito guide as being made in blue, yellow or red base plastics for production vehicles.
Somewhat dingy finish overall. Obvious factory reference or practice run of the body.
FOOTNOTE: BROKEN FRONT STRUTS. Tyco at that time, removed the two front struts to accommodate a free rolling chassis, modified from the guts of a tcr.
They were giving the Free Rolling Chassis & Body away, as a pair, at F1 Indy Car Races around the Pacific Rim & Southern Hemisphere. Absolutely Beautiful Deco Job!
Missing Struts are really not too noticeable. Just about any narrow pan TYCO or Mattel chassis will fit such as an HO, 440, 440-X2, HPX2 etc. great!
