Looking for a nice complete set of the Strombecker slot cars. I prefer complete but would consider others too. Thanks

I'm no help, in fact I had to do a search on the 'net to find out what you were talking about. I do like slot cars though, so I wish you good luck in your search.

As I kid I had a Marx slot car set. I wore it out and then it got tossed, wish we had been smart enough to keep it. I found cars from a set like it and some track and hand controls, but always wanted a complete set.

Sorry, didn't mean to "hi-jack" your thread with my memories.

Wish I still had my Strombecker...I've got a few B&W photos of me w/it during the 60's though.

I have a strombecker set but do not think it has cars. Been a couple years since I looked at it. If your interested let me know & i'll dig it out. I also have a bunch of aurora model motoring sets from the 60's as well. Aging no cars I think. They are it the overhead in the garage.


Got Socony???
