Pair of winners. Bobby Hillin's first and only victory at Talladega. Bobby Allison's lone victory in 1986 at the Alabama super Speedway. My first cars built for 2021. The bodies are resin. The hoods came affixed and do not open. I used Revell diecast chassis cut to fit under the cars. The bodies are old and crude and took a lot of time to get right. I decided to make them at the same time because I wanted the paint to match correct. I use an air brush and painted them with Testors Model Masters Guards Red and Krylon Easy does it White. I paint with enamel and did not use clear on the cars. The 1986 Buick LeSabre is a rare car of only about 117 made with the blocked out window for NASCAR. The following year Plexiglass was allowed and the cars looked like the Oldsmobile on the rear side glass so that peculiar window was gone.
