The Jimmy oOple Auction

[Stu]

An auction of the late Jimmy ‘oOple’ Storey’s collection of R/C cars and parts will take place during the Winter oOoo’s ‘Christmas Weekender’ which is to be held on the 5/6 December 2015 at Chadderton Raceway.

We would like interested people to attend the auction; it will take place after racing finishes on Saturday 5th December at approximately 5.30pm.

Jimmy wanted his extensive collection to go to people who would understand it and look after it so to that end we will be giving the racers who have grown up with oOple the chance to own a part of history.

The auction will include new in box vintage kits and spares, body shells and newer kits including cars that Jimmy raced himself.

All the Lots will be on display an hour prior to the auction at Chadderton if you wish to browse.

The Lots are listed separately in the new dedicated auction section with pictures of each lot.
