Not sure about a plastic kit of a Zamboni but I have a diecast one of the NJ Devils. I dont think it would be that hard to scratch build pretty square. I belive I saw on a discovery channel show that they are built on a Chevy S-10 chassis. I think Faller or another European Dealer makes a HO scale roller coaster I remember seeing one in my Walther's catalog. Hope that helps youout some.

I thought I'd read/heard the Zamboni was built on a surplus Jeep chassis. There are some interesting early ones on their site. Here's a link to the official Zamboni site. No mention of the S10, however.

Remember, if the women don't find you handsome, they should at least find you handy.

A company called Coaster Dynamix has several HO scale roller coaster kits.

They are a tad on the pricey side.
