Question about my quarter scale

Post by booth racing »

Hey there, I'm new and I'd like to start by saying I love this site. I have a gn car I got about a year ago and I just put it in the rafters, now I have to start on it. My question is, it has a v-belt and a band brake, does that put iti in any certain era of production?????

it sounds like a WCM mid 1980's- early 1990's by 1991 they went t a pro car which had a seco rear, and then went to a single belt...

it is a WCM, missing the rear bumper. check out the frame just in front on the motor, it should have a plate on the cross member in front of the spark plug, with a number stamped on it. let me know what number you have.
