Features an all new first

In 1962, Ford Motor Company and Aurora Plastics united to create one
of the most successful slot car racing programs in history - The Grand
Nationals Championship. Auroras President, Abe Shikes and his friend Lee
Iacocca of Ford, struck a deal; Aurora would promote all of their HO
scale Ford model slot cars and Ford would donate a real car to the
winner.
The Championship was massively successful and ran until
1968. To enter the events racers had to purchase a Competition Pac with
Limited Edition Mustangs, just like these.
** PLEASE NOTE: These bodies are made with a new metal flake paint
process that is not exactly the same every time. Much like spectra-flame
paint on old Hot Wheels, each paint job is slightly different. Some
blems or pops or slivers will appear here or there. While some find that
annoying, others find a uniqueness that adds value, much like a
packaging error may. Others that race will probably never ever notice.
For the 'annoyed' crowd, I can offer a full refund but not a
replacement. Up to you. **
