Hyannis 60 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 Bernard F.
