The 1938 Chris-Craft 16" Painted Racer is a vibrant 1:8 scale model that captures the patriotic flair of 1930s–40s runabouts, featuring a bold red, white, and blue finish with mahogany accents. Measuring 24" long, it includes balsa strip planking over laser-cut frames, chrome fittings, aluminium details, and full running hardware — a perfect blend of value, detail, and vintage charm ready for R/C or display.
The beautiful new Painted Racer is a fine example of the painted runabout of the 1930's and 40's. It's red, white and blue colour scheme along with the rich mahogany accents separate this kit from the others in the line.
Since this is a painted model the use of mahogany veneer is limited which translates to a great value price. The kit is constructed with balsa strip plank over die cut and laser cut frames. Besides the basic construction differences, this kit includes all the items you have come to expect from a Dumas Chris-Craft kit. Step-by-step instructions, flag, decal, chrome plated fittings, aluminium accents and complete drive line hardware.
