Hondo Posted June 11, 2008 Share Posted June 11, 2008 (edited) Just finished the Model King Challenger funny car. (Raced by the Beebe Brothers in 1970, Dave Beebe driver) Made some modifications to the interior tin, the chassis and front end. Used the great Slixx decals and Boyd's paints.

Harry P. Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Very nice! I love funny cars from that era...they still looked like real cars. Today's funny cars are like today's NASCAR racers...except for the decals they all look alike! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pam Hofheins Christensen Posted October 15, 2023 Share Posted October 15, 2023 This is my dad’s funny car! Dean Hofheins and his friend, Dallas Fergason built and owned it and hired the Beebe Bros. to drive when my dad decided not to anymore. I would LOVE to get a model for him. Are there any out there someone would sell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
