Brutalform Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 (edited) I have a couple Bel Air cars to build. I also want to finish up the red Proffitt car real soon also. I saw videos of this car leave the line with the wheels in the air, all crooked. Don’t know what engine is in the real car, so I just tossed in a typical 409, stroker, with a bunch of race parts, and single dominator.

Fairfax Posted September 18, 2019 Share Posted September 18, 2019 I love these cars. I also have this Bel Air and I've been thinking about how to build it for a year. Very nicely built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtx6970 Posted September 19, 2019 Share Posted September 19, 2019 I think I saw this car on a trailer in our hotel parking lot back in the early 90s . We were in Atlanta at the time. And best i remember it was a 409 , ( had the hood open at the backside along the cowl ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jjsipes Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 Looks great. Love these kits. I seen Carolina Thunder and I thought it might be a Ronnie Sox car but his had Thunder in Carolina on it. Looks real good great job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this were my car, I’d try to get that rear to settle down with an anti roll bar, or something. Some E.T. Is being left on the table, I’m sure.

TarheelRick Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Beautiful build. I am a sucker for the early Super Stock/FX classes, then racing was racing. Those launch pictures are brutal, sort of reminds me of these hydraulic cars doing their wheelstand dances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
