Rocket Oil Special

==Description==
Rocket Oil Special is an unlicensed casting resembling a land speed record car from the 1920s or 1930s. It features two distinctive side strakes which act as tanks; these side strakes have been removed from certain releases and replaced with a set of long exhaust pipes.
The casting was given a retool in 2021, using slightly less metal on the body; despite this the casting still retains a metal-metal construction.
==Versions==
The Rocket Oil Special has come out in the following 1/64 scale versions:
