This was a quick little fun project I wrapped up not long ago. These were super limited multi-media kits put out for a brief time. It consisted of several brass photo-etched sheets, some resin tires and wheels. I drew the decal art, and they were printed by Mark Renaldo. This particular car was raced by Kevin Gundaker out of the St. Louis area in the 90's. To see how it how it all went together, check out the video I made on it here.

Some of you may remember this one from earlier this year when I started on it, for a YouTube build series on my channel. I got part 1 out and then a busy Summer, and other projects got in the way. But I finally got it finished up, and Part 2 was uploaded as well. This is pretty much the box stock, WMCC kit, I added the front screen, and used the chrome wheels and air cleaner from his accessories kit. Here's the links to the two videos if you are interested in seeing how one of these kits goes together!

I know you get tired of hearing it, but man, you are incredible! The skill and precision....just mind blowing. What a piece of mechanical art!! And I also gotta say and not to hi-jack but, "WOW! Mike Flynn is here!!" Mike I am a big fan of your work.....your La Victoria Salsa TF is still one of my all time favorite models. Glad to see you here! CK

Finished up a quick build of the Salvino's JR round headlight Monte Carlo. I just built this one up box stock to get a feel for things and see how it went together. I had also got a new batch of Powerslide decals I was itching to try out. I did a few adjustements to the body.....I opened up the side window openings slightly to make them match the size of the quarter window along the top. I also did some trimming in the grill/headlight area so the the chrome bumper and center grill could go up higher into the body. Basically just trimming the lower edge under the headlights and the hood. Making the front look a little less bulky. I also sanded down some of the body lines to soften the look a little bit. The body was painted with a base coat white, and cleared with Omni 2 part clear. Then the really cool foil Powerslide decals were added. Once the whole model was finished I spit some rubber black paint along the lower edges and leading edges of the hood and roof with the airbrush to show some race grime. And the completed model.......Also a bit of a personal plug, if you are on Instagram or Facebook I am starting my own model specific pages at both places to show more of what I work on from day to day. Please feel free to follow me at Clay Kemp Scale Modeling....thanks!

Pretty easy to see who is the weak link in this challenge! That would be me.... Great update Chris! I am so happy to see you getting some bench time. The engine is looking terrific. Now where did my Yellow Feather go?? -
Nice work Lou! You always work so cleanly. Good to see more detailed Nascar models getting built. I tried going to your fotki to see what else you have been up to but it says access denied. I had been blocked? Clay
