Large Chaparral 2B blowmold model... ID needed

[motiheal]

This is 22 inches long, blowmold, no makers mark anywhere except saying DRAGSTER on each tire. Any help with ID appreciated. I would like to sell it eventually. John

Now that's different, kind of looks like a Chaparral2c.. Never heard of "Blowmold" probably a Japanese deal.. Looks almost like a 1965 Genie. Chris

Hello,

That is cool. I am by no means an expert, but the press fit axles suggest this could be a plasticized PVC toy rather than a model kit. Notice the seats are molded into the bottom half. Is it a flexible type of plastic? The Chaparral 2C was about 158 inches long so 22 would make it roughly 1/7 scale.

Thanks,
Ismael

Yes it is a flexible plastic, like the outdoor Christmas Santas. Thanks for the measurement. It's not a model in the sense that it was sold unassembled. There is evidence that it had roundel numbers once.
