Having a sort out, vintage Shumacher stuff!

covertfox · #1 20-01-2019

I've just started sorting through all mine and my dad and grandad's old modelling stuff from the late 80's. Brought back loads of great memories so I though I'd share a few pics of some of the stuff I've dug out.

Some nice things going on there, vintage racing is on the up with more meetings and races being announced all the time, old school Schumachers are fetching reasonable money as well not ridiculous but there's definitely a market for it, manuals boxes and original stickers are all on people's wish lists.

Thanks for the the kind words and feedback fellas. Nice to know there's still folk out there that appreciate this stuff and that it was worth hanging on to all this time, I knew it couldn't possibly be as undesirable as the guy in my local model shop made out when I tentatively enquired as to whether there might be any interest in vintage kit. I'm guessing he'd hope I'd not do any proper research and become aware of the recent revival when he suggested that Shumacher were no longer a going concern and he'd make me a conservative offer on the job lot!

It's on a cougar with modified suspension set up. If I remember right I fancied a go at 10th on road so me and my grandad set about building something from parts we had knocking about. I'll post some pics with the shell removed when I get chance.
