Conversions

Many people are hesitant about making a convertible on their own because one slip of the dremel or knife and they've ruined a a beautiful slot car. With over 40 years of modeling experience, I can take the guess work out of owning a custom conversion. Whether you're looking for a pink Caddilac Convertible or a 64 Fairlane Ranchero, check out what I've already made and decide which beauty you'd like to place next to the hardtop version in your show case or just show off at the next race.
