Raco GN - Antique store find
Hello all, I recently found this Raco at a local antique store sitting up in the rafters. After doing some research I found this forum and began to get excited about sharing this car with all of you. After some negotiation I purchased the car and to my surprise several boxed full of parts, tires, screws, shocks and more. Also inside was a well kept history of the car and it's races. The car was owned by Don Ross of Santa Ana in the 90's. If anyone knows of Don or has any stories I would love to hear them. My plan is to restore it and race it once again, in his honor. Enjoy!

A good find, you'll get a lot of enjoyment out of making her 'good as new' again.

Re: Raco GN - Antique store find
Hi. I’ve found a Raco grand national (see pic) but missing a few parts. The other pic I’ve attached is of your front bumper. Is there anyway you could possibly trace a scaled template of it so I can make one?
Appreciate any holp.
