One of the boxes from the Corgi Electro Rockets car has no flaps on one side. So i made a copy from another box and glued it together.

Very clean contacts. Some luck.
I had a spare engine so i used that.
For the other engine i had to make new brushes and it is working.
The little wire is copper for making the brushes.

I still have a 150 Rolls Royce Silver Wraith to restore so I was thinking of Black and White. White on top of course. I think you also suggested that to me Theo.

Today in the mail:
Another 2 Corgi Electro Rockets cars.
1 excellent body that i'm going to leave it as it is.
The other body in ovencleaner and the contacts in 1/2 Viakal blue and 1/2 water.
I hope that the brushes are ok.
