It is hard thing to nail it down to just one, I can think of two that really take the cake for me, the Group 5 BMW 3.5 CSL and the Porsche 917. Between those it is toss up, at least for me.

The Greenwood Corvette body made in England I think, I try very hard to limit myself to 1/10th but that body could be enough..........

I am not 100% certain, but I believe that is an Associated body. I have a cut one that I could use. Qty = price.

I want to (not) thank you for the pic of the Greenwood Corvette as it has (not) helped me in my want for a 1/8 scale car just to (not) show off one of those bodies. Hmmmm 10L parts on a lengthened and widened aluminum pan………………

This was mounted on my first car (bought used) painted white, blue, and gold. I could never get the car to stick to the track because they told me I had to run it flat out for it to handle and I was such a wimp.
