I have a few extra early cars and already been on Ebay searching guard rails and controllers.
He knew I'd be interested because just a few days ago we were talking about things we have had since we were kids and I told him I still had three complete A/FX slot tracks from the early seventies and close to fifty cars.
The price? $25!!! And brought it to me at work today.
I used to have a track set up in my attic and the kids and I raced occasionally. Once we get the next house I intend to set up one huge track with the A/FX kits and now maybe run this one inside it. Then it will be time to introduce the grandkids to old style toys!
Last pic is the newer style A/FX and GPlus style cars. Much faster than the older ones. The NASCAR ones I picked up at yard sales. Attachment 48415
