What’s a good place to order number decals for stock cars?

looking great! what color are you thinking for the chassis? to me, color is important because it can either hide or enhance the looks of the overall car.....a dark color chassis and a dark color car body lends itself to hiding details that you may want to bring out. likewise, a light color chassis and a light color body could show the mistakes that we all tend to make, no matter how long you've been building! it takes me a while to decide what colors I want to lay down.
Chassis is silver/gray body I’m still debating

Now that I understand! Until Hobby Lobby opened in my area and I started gathering materials, I was locked into using what I had available. I wasn't going to mention the tubes. But, the structure of the cage is sound and other than the size, which I can overlook, it looks great! The headers? I'm starting to work with solder and making my own (and I've been modeling for over 45 years!)....but with my military career (20 years) and moving an average of once every three years, I was left with building box stock. Now i'm retired and getting the hang of aftermarket detailing! Look forward to seeing the completion of this build and your future builds!
Thanks. I found the headers in a box of parts then used some heat to bend them, then used tubing to collect them together

I do agree. The workmanship is top notch, but remember 1 millimeter = 1 scale inch. The tubes look oversized.
I agree, local hobby store only had that and didn’t want to wait to order more. Being the first car I’ve done in a long time I was expecting to be a bit rusty. Next build is going to be no expenses spared

Here is an idea. Maybe do a Paul Goldsmith #99 car. He never raced a 70 Coronet, only the 68 and 69 Coronets.
Any pics of his cars?

Nice looking chassis, impressive cage work. What are you using for front and rear chassis clips?
Early 90s nascar kits I picked up at a swap meet.

Fireball Modelworks and Scenes Unlimited both sell larger diameter off-road tires, though not exactly 38".
Thanks I’ll check it out. Don’t need to be exact just something big. Trying to recreate my dads mud runner

Anyone know of any resin of road tires for a truck? Looking for something that would scale down to 38”

Does anyone know of a 1960 buick lesabre kit or a resin body? thanks

Thanks. Not that I know of. May have to be one of those things to scratch build for each one
