speculates about post-Innsmouth gaming.
As I mentioned earlier, I'm planning to do some car-combat-type gaming, and I want to have two racing teams of three cars each. So here I am working on 'yellow' team car #3.
Leadfoot is a toy car from Maisto. It's been released in green, blue, red and other colors, sometimes with colorful decals – I picked this one up in a dollar store.
For a combat-car conversion, it has some useful qualities. First, it's body, so the flat roof and sides would be easy to mount weapons on. Second, those 'torpedo bulges' on the front could easily be considered armor, rams, missile warheads, or even weapon mounts. The rear end also has bulges that could be the start of conversion work.
There are three bolts to drill out, and the car breaks down into chassis, body, windows, chrome engine, and wheels – ready to paint!
And this is the finished car! The body was spraypainted yellow (got a little 'lemon peel' effect 
), with some panels in black and red.
The main armament is the new turret, mounted slightly turned to show that it's a turret and not a fixed gun mount.
The chrome engine part was left untouched. The bumpers were painted gunmetal to suggest armor.
I wanted some team markings, but I wanted them to look like they were hand-painted by the crew. So I used a silver marker to add a vehicle ID number.
On the other side, I wrote the team name: IMAI. (The original car on this team came with 'Imai' markings, so why not make this Team Imai? Mr. Imai, by the way, is a famous toy car designer.)
The rear bumper is again painted gunmetal to suggest armor or reinforcement.
Defensive armament on the back are an oil sprayer/flamer and a grenade lobber. All the accessories used on this project are available from Stan Johansen Miniatures.
The vehicle is mounted on a wooden base flocked with black sand (for a 'road' effect), with FlexSteel underneath for storage purposes. Wooden base and FlexSteel from LITKO.
