Scottnkat Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 This build started as the reissued Petty Talladega. It's mostly box-stock with just a few changes. I cut off the exhaust and used brass pipe instead. I adjusted a couple of parts just a bit to appeal to me more. I wrapped the steering wheel with thin tape, and added valve stems to the wheels. Finally, the decals were a mix of ones I had in my parts box and some that I made myself. It's not based on any one single race, but is just an interpretation of what his car could have looked like at the time.
