This pair of 1970s Indianapolis race cars from Ralph Ratcliffe were on display at the 2009 East Coast Meet. Both cars are a preview of resin kits coming later this year from Masterbilt Models. The blue Sunoco car is the 1972 Indy 500 winner driven by Mark Donohue. The Olsonite Eagle was driven by Bobby Unser from the pole in 1972. Ralph did all the pattern work for both models and the resulting models are absolutely spectacular!
