It’s a resin copy of the old MOC PETTY Plymouth. The chassis is a Polar Lights Charger.

Looks like the company did a great job on the resin body. Or maybe it was your prep of the body that made the difference. Came out very smooth.

Too bad he had back problems and had to retire..I know he drove at first for Petty Enterprises then Cotton Owens but after I didn't know..He was a good wheel man with some talent..I also know he was involved with Petty on the Kit Car stuff, or was it Jim Millican?

Actually his last ride in a cup car was with the Crawford brothers in their 72 Plymouth, that eventually won the Talladega 500, with Dick Brooks at the wheel in 1973.

The older and obscure NASCAR cars are my favorites. How many 2016 cars can you build before you get sick of them? They are all the same. Very interesting car, great paint and a stunning look in the end. Great job.
