Scalextric never made a model of the Austin 1100 or 1300 range
of cars. This resin body kit is based on the Austin 1300GT variant
in the range which was a fast car for the time. The engine was essentially
the 1275 Mini Cooper S engine with 70 BHP available.
This fantastic kit is suitable for use as the basis of a unique
slot car or as a static 1/32nd scale model. The kit contains the
following components:
- body shell
- window moulding
- front grille
- front bumper
- rear bumper
- driver plate
- driver's head
If this model is to be used
on the Scalextric track then it can be fitted to a Scalextric Ford
Escort XR3i, Datsun 260Z or MG Maestro chassis fitted with the our
Minilite
wheels and narrow tyres. Some modification will need to be made
to the periphery of the chassis for it to fit the finished body
snuggly. The wheelbase and track of the chassis are a good fit to
this body.
