Skeels/ProSlot Special 6
Item: 1/24 scale Professional brass pan slot car chassis (SK/PS 6)
Date collected: Aug. 20, 2001
Source: auction
Made by: John Skeels?
Made when: mid to late 1970s (?)
Notes: A chassis in my Skeels/ProSlot group.
Unfortunately, this chassis is missing the plumber cross bar, so the two side pans
flop around uselessly. Also missing is the rear axle tube.
Someday I will get brave enough to solder in new ones.
The frame rails are connected by a loop of wire to the front axles,
and the rails lift and rotate independently around hinges in front of the motor bay.
The unusual half-pans must add stiffness (?).
