Great model as usual Rod. I may be letting the cat out of the bag but "The Rolling Bones" in the Saratoga,NY area are building a  Doane Spencer "tribute car". I saw the finished rolling chassis at their annual Garage Night last Saturday night.This is going to be great! I have all the makings of one of these,from the same source, RMofM,I even had a DuVal windshield plated.Can't wait to see more of your stuff!bigkenny

Doc,if I do another one,which I may,I'd go with the Omaha Orange.With some of the pics you'll find that the sponsor name is over the wheel wells,others on the C-pillars,because of the way the Pinto body was cut.The kit body will have to modified if you want to run them over the wheel wells.The ACE decal package has some b/w photo guides.There were so many cars,no matter what you build,as long as it's Orange and #61,you'll be close.Round numbers,square numbers,and on and on.Bigkenny

Started one for a club project some time ago,do as much research as you can.Get the right shade of orange.Urban legand would have you believe he used paint from the Rome,NY DPW.In the very early years, he might have,but later on he got a little more sophisticated,and used paint from GM and Ford. Get the tires and wheels from PPP,and ACE decals,and you should be on your way.With the decal sheet you can build several  car,get if you  them while you can.Do your best,and don't worr about "know it alls" See a real car if you can,and pay attention to when he used Goodyears or Firestones.Good Luck and have fun,and a great Holiday Season!
