More 80's mania. I based this build off of AJ's car from the Talladega 500. Monogram Olds 88, Powerslide decals, MM Hugger Orange and Tamiya TS14 Black. Molded in the A pillar roll bars, AMT window net, made a RT side window and sideskirt for the plate package, AJ ran this crazy front ductwork panel that I recreated with foil tape and round decals, and a woodgrain dashboard top.













Thanks for looking,
Joe

Looks great! What was your technique for the wood grain dash?

Thanks everyone, I appreciate it.

hemiman, according to Racing References his last Daytona 500 was 92.

Rob, I painted the dash flat brown and then dry brushed flat black side to side for the grain effect.

Thanks again!

The last Daytona 500 Foyt ran was in '92 and was in the #14 Oldsmobile.
His last Nascar race was at Indy in '94 in a #50 T-Bird.

Beautiful as always. Would have never thought to use the AMT window net. Great work.
