Honest car reviews both big and small
New 1/43 Indy Winner a colorful replica of Ruttman's racer … If you’re an Indy 500 nut like me you’ll recognize Troy Ruttman’s name, otherwise he might be a mystery, or vague memory to you. There’s a reason for that. Ruttman won the 1952 Indianapolis 500, but never won another IndyCar race during his long... Continue Reading →
Black Shadow proved dominant in final Can-Am season … Can-Am racing in the late 1960s and early 1970s was breathtaking, and each season seemed to produce a dominant car with massive engines and power. What’s not to like, right? McLarens dominated the early years with their Kiwi Orange bodies, the M1B, M6A, and M8A. Bruce... Continue Reading →
Silver Cheetah a muscular winner in 1/18 scale … Hard as it is to imagine, the funky Cheetah sports car has never been reproduced in 1/18 scale, at least not this stunning silver version that Replicarz has chosen to make as part of its Sports Car series. This sealed body cast-resin model highlights the... Continue Reading →
Britain's Vanwall was dominant F1 racer, briefly ... Vanwall, the name alone sounds intriguing when attached to a green monopasto racer that somewhat resembles a racing cigar. Vanwall is the team name for one of Britain’s first Formula One race teams, the first to win the F1 Constructor’s Championship, in the first year it was... Continue Reading →
Latest 1/43 scale Maserati racers are a colorful duo … The late 1930s and early 1940s saw race cars developing quickly into what we would consider modern racers and Wilbur Shaw and his Boyle Special, a Maserati 8CTF, led the way at the Indianapolis 500, but others followed quickly. In 1939 Shaw won the 500... Continue Reading →
Ixo’s Ford GT a beautiful bargain … I still don’t know how Ford did it, come up with a new GT that’s as beautiful as the old one, but with a modern twist. I also don’t know how Ixo continues to offer such beautiful 1/43 die-cast models at such reasonable prices. The reviewed Ford GT... Continue Reading →
Souders' Duesenberg a gorgeous racer … Replicarz, the Vermont-based die-cast car distributor, has been making an exclusive line of cast resin Indy 500 winners for years. Lately it has turned its considerable attention to Indy-winning Duesenbergs from the 1920s. The cars won in 1924, 1925 and 1927 and the latest  1/18 scale beauty in the... Continue Reading →
This beautiful Scarab won Riverside in 1958 … First came the 1959 Scarab that Jim Jeffords drove to a win at Meadowdale, but now Replicarz delivers the first Scarab to win a sports car race.

Unique VW for the racing-oriented collector ... When I was a kid the only minivans were VW vans. They fit the mini category, maybe even invented it. But these were simple vehicles that like VW’s Beetle captured many of us Boomers’ imaginations. What may have been forgotten, however, is that there were several iterations and... Continue Reading →
Pete DePaolo's Duesenberg is a beauty ... Last time we laid eyes on Replicarz’s 1/18 scale Indy-winning Duesenbergs they were prototypes. Now comes the real deal, and just in time for next month’s 102nd running of the Indianapolis 500. Granted Duesenbergs haven’t been ripping up the Speedway recently, but they were a force in the...
