1/24 Fireball Slingshot Dragster Plastic Model Kit (AANM6710)

Experience the thrill of nostalgia with the 1/24 Fireball Slingshot Dragster Plastic Model Kit. This exquisite model kit pays homage to the classic Monogram Dragster, meticulously crafted from all plastic molded in white, without chrome parts or rubber tires, offering a genuine classic appeal. Featuring stunning new artwork created by Gene Chambers, this kit presents two decal options for the Fireball or the Californian.

The dragster represents a specialized type of race car designed for achieving the fastest quarter mile on the drag strip. It efficiently centers the weight of the engine and driver over the rear wheels for optimal traction, using wide, smooth "drag slicks" for the rear tires and slim motorcycle-type tires mounted on spoke wheels for the front, ensuring lightweight design. The Atlantis Fireball Dragster exemplifies the quintessential cars used throughout the United States during the early to mid-1960s, powered by a highly modified Chevrolet V-8 engine paired with a GMC supercharger.
