Nice modifieds! On the #19 what wheel/tires combo did you use? I just bought a Revell 40 Ford that I want to make into a late 40s - early 50s era modified- I don't think the PPP wheels and tires will ...

Charlie Glotzbach drove a white 1970 Dodge Coronet in a 1971 race at Greenville Pickens - it's on youtube - there's some close up shots of the car around the middle of the race

Nice job - this Jackie Stewart fan approves this 👍

They all look good but I'm going to pick the #46 Goodwrench Pontiac

I read both books and I highly recommend them both

RIP Dr Tarr

Sounds like this will be a great project. Just wondered how you found a 65 kit, unless you've had it in your stash for a while. I've been looking for another 65 for a long time. Wish round 2 would do ...

Nice job - I'm a Jeff Green fan so I really like this 👌

Then you might dig this fragment of Jeff Green's history - hanging in my garage.

I'm in for a few - good to see newer cars being done

I personally like the AMT kits. Probably because I built more "annual" kits when I was a kid than R/M kits. I think the detail is good but 1/24 took off in the 1980s with the Regal/MC kits ...

Found this treasure trove of what looks like every Nascar kit made with pictures of the boxes

Maybe build the Days of Thunder cars - they were all Luminas IIRC

IMO the body is pretty close to the 71 MPC Buddy Baker Charger - my only issue is with the 5 slot wheels - the slots look kind of narrow - I can maybe use PPP wheels if I want - Looking forward to bui ...

I recall seeing a similar eagle scheme on a Petty Enterprises / Joe Millikan Sportsman Charger ??? It probably was a red 71 or 72 #04 Charger with Hayes jewelers as a sponser - don't know when or whe ...

Mine arrived today (well yesterday, actually) and it looks great. I test fitted it too and it looks pretty good fit wise. Can't wait to get my 68 Charger project started.

I can relate to this all too well. I live in the suburbs outside of Chicago and because of past experiences will not mail anything out of our local post office. The post office in the next town over i ...

Not to be sounding PC or anything like that but all the nominees are worthy - glad to see Mike Stefaniak get in - Although I voted 50 times a day when the Labontes and Buddy Baker were nominees, I sti ...

I'd grab a few Gen 6 Camaros for sure👍👍

I hope the 71 Charger that Salvinos is releasing does have a flat hood - either way I'm in for a few It will not however one will be available.
Thank You for the heads-up Smile

I hope the 71 Charger that Salvinos is releasing does have a flat hood - either way I'm in for a few

The 71 Charger used a flat hood - like in the mpc Buddy Baker 71 Charger - I think the middle of 71 or 72 was when the bulge hood was used - I may not be 💯 right but I know for a while that in ...

Nice Charger!!!!

Not sure how many of you know this but you can now start voting - I tried Thursday or Friday of last week and it wasn't ready yet to vote- I hope someday Ray Nichels gets nominated

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

My complaint is that it doesn"t come with the Roadrunner cartoon character figure - seriously might be good if you want to build Buddy Arrington's 74 Plymouth that he ran

I'm guessing the 1975 Richard Petty paint scheme is wrong - the red and the blue are reversed

Use testors and Tamiya - pretty much the same colors DennisO uses - I plan on building a few old school Mopars and a few older Fords so I'm going to be using Chrysler engine red (which looks orange to ...

protech model parts.com - mostly engine detailing parts but other detail parts too - I like their braided lines - they also carry model railroad stuff if anyone's interested

Excellent work👍👍👍👍

I plan on going to see this movie too although I agree with Bill J as far as expecting some Hollywood embellishment
As long as it doesn't become another Dazed & Blundered !!! Rolling Eyes

Amazing how ...

If you got the spare parts there's nothing wrong with putting them to good use

Looks pretty cool for what you had to work with - you did a good job with what you had

I meant what the Salvino's Charger looks like

I'd go with NPC if you're willing to part with the extra dinero- the polar lights body just didn't work - I thought it looked to much like a cheap toy - or wait and see what savings Charger looks like

A resin or kit of the Mustang would be good - I plan on getting a Camaro resin soon myself

A while back I picked up a couple of Revell 57 Chevy kits which were my first 50s era cars- but really I build (or attempt to) from all eras

Thank You Ron - that's what I'm gonna use then - much appreciated

Those are some very nice models you built- I have one question though- what did you use for the headlight covers? I want to use sheet plastic but I want a second opinion- I was thinking about filling ...

I have a couple, (one with the bel air body and one with the correct body) -my only problem with the kit is the headlight covers aren't correct-

I think all Ray Nichels owned hemi cars had the 429 marking on the hood, not really sure why they did that

81-85 Oldsmobile Cutlass. 1995 Pontiac Grand Prix 2018 Camaro

I agree with Mark C- I think both the Plymouth and the Charger would be good gap fillers- the PL chassis might be useful but that Charger body was pretty warped- hopefully if it is released it's close ...

I'm all about reading books, especially racing books so in no particular order here are my favorite books
1. Snake vs. Mongoose by Tom Madigan
2. Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, Battle at Le Mans by A. ...

You're right - l remember now Rich Bickle also drove that carI think Rick Bickle drove the car the following season.
