I've been wanting to build this one for a while and modeled it after the Daytona 500 car. RM slabside Monte and decals from Mike. The body was base coated in Testors Mystic Emerald lacquer, and them I misted a light coat of Duratrax polycarb Metallic Green to get the shade closer to the piece of sheetmetal I had from a '99 car.
The window opening bars were molded in, modified the window net, new quarter windows, and spoiler braces for the first time in years.
Thanks for looking,
Joe _________________ Joe Oteri

That looks awesome. I always thought the tobacco cars looked the coolest for some reason. |

The wheel and tire detail is outstanding. What are the color polka dots for? |

I've always loved the Skoal cars. Not a user, but I've always liked that green! Beautiful build. |

Amazing build. Your ability to create models that are so lifelike is unmatched. This car looks like it is full scale.
