Well here it is. My first model car since 1977. I had a heck of a time with the springs. Where do they go? They just didn't look right. And yes, I know they are not dirt tires. I promise I'll buy some aftermarket stuff real soon. The decals are chopped up from the old #87 Burger King ride, and some scraps a friend gave me. Where can a guy get some good decals? All and all I had a lot of fun. I hope evryone likes it and please tell me what I did wrong. Not to bad for an old Armor builder.

Hey, The car looks great! If you will go in your photobucket and click on the little white box beside each picture, then scroll down to the bottom of the page and left click generate HTML and image code IMG, next page left click images for message boards, high light and right click, copy, go to your post and paste. Hope this helps.

Good lookin race car! I know how ya feel about switching build types. That is exactly how I feel when I work on an aircraft, maybe that is why I only have one finished so far! Lookin forward to seein more!
