Trick 'T'
Dig the Magic Spell of this Speed Demon

  • Original year: 1970
  • Company: Monogram
  • Scale: 1/24
  • Designer: Tom Daniel

Super-Neat Unreal Rail! You'll pop your eyes when you dig this wild, way-out dragster with the muscle-packed Blown Hemi Mill in the plush upholstered driver's seat and the driver peering out where the engine should be. Trick Tom Daniel, Wizard of all designers, used his magic touch when he created this illusion. It's styled to disappear from the starting line, zoom like magic down the quarter-mile and reappear at the finish line, its twin Deist chutes blossoming out of nowhere. TRICK "T"...you won't believe your eyes.

Dave's comments:

There are lots of customized rails on this site, but I think this one has the best lines of all of them. Tom re-did it again in 1975 without the drag chutes and called it the Stinger.
