Ray Hendrick 1969 Chevelle

Recommended Posts

I started this one about a week ago...I have been wanting to build this car for several months and got to looking at Mark Jeffries build of this car and decided to start it. I started with the AMT Chevelle and used a AMT Nascar chassis...I built the cage using evergreen styrene tubing and sheets. More soon.

Now that's a good subject for a model...

Neat LOOKING car, great heritage, even a big improvement over the 'condition' of the original kit...

Now you don't have to put up with that stupid chassis!

What are you doing for decals/markings?

Ray wasn't that well known for his full-bodied rides so yours is good to see. Nice and low with a cage that looks period perfect. I always pick up an AMT stock car kit when I can for $5 or less, great 'bashing material for those short track cars.

I have the same '69 kit here and a set of Herschel McGriff's Olympia Beer decals for it, I might have to get into that soon.
