Hello everyone, while I was waiting for some paint to dry on a Top Fueler I'm working on. I started playing around with this idea. I had gotten some of my old models down at my dads house that were either donor kits or incomplete when I came across this NASCAR Monte Carlo body. While I was looking at it it dawned on me that I think it would look good as a Sportsman car and it would also be fun in learning how to do a scratch build for the chassis, etc. I did a little mock up and started the blueprint for the chassis. I would like to know what you guys think and welcome any opinions about bringing it to life.

Looks awesome!

Thank you very much for the advice guys. I will be sure to give one of them a shot. Right now I have a dodge avenger funny car on the work bench that I was thinking of doing a Bass Pro Shops paint scheme on. Once I'm done with that I'm going to clean up the Olds and get to work on that.

Thank You Mike. I will give one of these options a shot

Hello all, I haven't built a model since I was a kid and when my father got back into it about a year ago and I saw just how much fun he was having I decided to get back into it myself once winter showed up here in New England. Well this summer I was at a tag sale and bought a Revell "Not your mothers Oldmobile" kit for $2. It was opened but all the parts are there, there is just one problem. Whoever it was that started this kit spray painted it in black with regular spray paint. Not model paint. Is there anything I can do to remove the spray paint so that the model paint will stick to it?
