Dear Dad:
This snappy little racer not only
is a novel toy, but you—and junior
—can make it in a weekend. Pow-
ered with two Eveready No. 935
flashlight batteries which drive a
small electric motor, it will scoot
over any smooth surface and when
the front bumper is touched, the
motor automatically stops.
You can build this car from
these instructions and you can ob-*
tain additional construction de-
tails from the March issue of
Mechanix Illustrated. Before start-
ing the actual construction, visit
your local bobby shop for the
necessary balsa wood, wheels,
gears and other materials. Once
the material is on hand, start con-
struction by enlarging the body
and chassis patterns to full size
directly on the balsa wood. Cut
out the base first, notching the
bottom for the gears. Mount the
gears, motor, axles and then carve
the front to accommodate the slide
switch. Run the wires to the
switch along the bottom, as shown,
and either bolt or cement the alu-
minum battery box in place. The
top is held in place witn a snug
fit on the three dowels. If neces-
sary, a rubber band can be
stretched over the top section to
hold it more secure. The gears are
worm-and-pinion units of the type
used in 00 gauge trains and are
connectedto the motor shaft with
a piece of rubber tubing which
acts as a coupling. The wheels
used in the original model were
of the rubber tire type, commonly
used on model airplanes. If de-
sired, you can carve or turn your
wheels from balsa wood and paint
the tires black. The Eveready No.
038 batteries are set in a medium
battery box. After the outside sur-
face is finished off, cut out the
streamlined' front axle pieces and
cement to the top section. Now
give your complete car a few coats
of wood filler and follow with
three or four coats of yourfavorite
color model airplane dope. Install
your batteries and you're off to a
good start by a flick of bumper
awltchl '
Good Luck,
BUILD THIS 10-INCH BALSA RACE CAR
