Thanks for responding, General Lou. I finally found the car I was thinking of on the internet. It is the Brabham BT46B. I thought it would make a nice companion piece to the Elf 6-wheeler.

There are two race cars designed in the 60’s that I think would make great 1:8 die cast models. One is the Elf 6 wheel race car. The other is just as unusual as the Elf, but I can’t remember the name of it. This car had an engine modification that actually sucked the car down to the road for incredible handling. Maybe someone else knows what it was called.

I’ve been trying to think of movie vehicles that haven’t been reproduced either as models or toys but would make spectacular 1:8 die cast models. The steam driven spider from Wild Wild West could be really exciting to model.

I also love the movie cars. One to consider might be Nemo’s car from League of Extraordinary Gentlemen. I don’t think that one has been done yet.
