Vintage F1 car body?

[Roog]

I’m looking for a Vintage F1 car body to fit my 1:7 scale chassis, something from 1950’s through to 1960’s before they started to fit wings!

any ideas? Or do I have to make one?

traditionally balsawood would be the period material of choice but I can’t see that lasting very long. To fit this thing!

Cheers and yes the front wheels do need adjusting :0)

I actually would like to see the balsa wood body for this!

What are the measurements of the car?

Well balsa seems the most likely solution, I must admit vintage f1 rc cars aren’t very common.

the wheel base is 354mm, front axle width 205 and rear axle 230mm
A can-am body would cover all manner of sins!
