Great job Steve! I agree with Joe - I had to do a double take as well.

Looks great!

Looks real good. Outstanding result!

Stunning build. Really outstanding work!

That is simply stunning! Great job.

Great job! Like the color of the paint a lot. The stance fits the look of the car superbly.

Looks great! Cale was a fierce competitor, and as Mark J wrote, he could win in anything.

Great work! One of my all-time favorites.

Great job! Very nicely done.

Stunning build. Absolutely stunning!

That is truly outstanding work. They all look fabulous!

Kansas City gave San Francisco every opportunity to win the game. The 49ers just could not put them away.

Boeing wrote the book on how NOT to build an airplane. How they come back from this is beyond me.

To answer the original poster’s question. The article I read stated that this was nothing more than a test. The current Cup race car was designed to accommodate an EV power plant if the NASCAR racing community ever chooses to go in that direction. The article also stated that NASCAR officials watched a race in Japan with hydrogen powered cars as they were guests of Toyota. Toyota appears to be a big proponent of using hydrogen to power cars instead of batteries. Lastly, NASCAR officials in this article clearly stated that they have no intention of moving away from the internal combustion engine for the foreseeable future. Yes, one can argue that the foreseeable future is a relative term; however, team owners at all three levels of NASCAR are struggling with costs. This includes some of the big teams. It will be very expensive to move to this technology, and overnight make all of their drivetrain equipment obsolete. This includes the equipment they use to build and test the drivetrains.

Great work! J.D. McDuffie was one of the unsung heroes of the sport.

This is a great tip and I have copied it for future use. Many thanks. I have a question if you do not mind. The coaxial cable has a wire going through it that you remove and replace. Why replace the wire in the coaxial cable?

Taste is certainly subjective, but I find this to be a very uninspiring looking car. I remember the 240, 260 and the 280's were very, very cool looking. It seems to me that each successive generation has become more and more bland. I really cannot remember the last time I saw a Z on the road.

Looks very good.

Great work Bill! Looks superb.

Looks spectacular! Very impressive build.

Very impressive work in such small scale.

After about 60 years or so, the concept of free trade is collapsing. It's going to take a very long time to undo what has been done.

Modelroundup.com has them too.

I saw on the news the other night that a poll was done about this. The people who wanted permanent DST or standard time split evenly. 8% liked the changing of the clocks. The enticement of DST is the extra hour in the evenings. It is a lot easier to get yard work done and such when not fighting the clock. Kids can play outside longer. There are benefits. Keeping DST permanent was tried in the mid 1970's as a way to save energy. It was argued that with the extra hour of daylight, homes would consume a little less energy, and in the aggregate, it would help a lot. One of the problems was that there was a record number of kids hit by cars walking to school in the mornings because of the darkness. After one year - maybe two we went back to changing the clocks twice a year. A lot changes in nearly 50 years. In my area, I don't think many kids walk to school. I will not comment on other cities or towns. The U.S. is a country that splits 50 - 50 on almost every issue. To have 92% of the population say they do not like changing the time twice a year, the politicians will get this done. Most who favor the other time will adjust. And then there will be boards like this for people to vent about how they were in favor of the time standard.

I had the same thing happen, and I think it is because I put the second coat on a little too heavy. I got to two points and did not move the can quickly enough and the paint built up a little bit. This is where the paint wrinkled.
