This is the car Bobby Unser drove to victory in the 1968 Indy 500. I've included two pictures taken at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Hall of Fame Museum so you can check out the accuracy of the MOC.

Quoting Dennis Price
Can the Johnny Lightning Special be far behind? I hope not!
That would make an excellent MOC ... I'll put it in the line up and give it a whirl. |

You know, Brian, this should become an actual LEGO model and to the person that had mentioned Peter Perfect, I think that they were inspired by INDY racers of that era when they had his car in mind. FYI, in PAL regions, and possibly in USA regions, they had a Wacky Races game for the NES but it's kind of rare from what I hear. Anyway, back to the MOC. This, and your more modern INDY racer, are the perfect examples of SNOT and decaling. They look spot on in both scale and appearance (well, as spot on as LEGO can look, anyway) to their real life counterparts. It's a shame that the IRL and F-1 series are in a bit of a disorganized mess these days, though...:( |

A fine accomplishment on Bobby's part ... and yours! That's one awesome model, Brian. I love those old Indy cars. Can the Johnny Lightning Special be far behind? I hope not! |

Cool. Now if you extend the nose and put bigger wheels on the back, Peter Perfect's Turbo Terrific! |
