The wonderful world of "Thingies". Pictures of Artistic slot cars from the Thingie King Edo Bertoglio's collection at Galleria Pack in Milan, Italy 2009.
So... you may ask... what exactly is a "Thingie" slot car?
Here is the Slot Car Wiki definition:
"Thingies - 60’s originated trend for performance orientated slot cars with outrageous original styling often using lightweight vacuum formed bodies or other hand-formed bodies & brass chassis. Not usually a scale model of a vehicle, but a vehicle in it's own right."

Edo is a colorful character who was heavily into slot cars back then, but about 8 yrs. ago or so, he suddenly stopped posting on the slot car bulletin boards. i don't know of anyone who knows what he's been doing since.
I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people who annoy me.
