Next set of updates. I now have the belts done ready to go into the car I also tried making a window net and would like some opinions on it as I'm undecided Finally I now have the spoiler and splitter installed, they are a little on the large side (the spoiler is current NASCAR size) but I think they look good on the car. I am thinking of a slightly more modern look for the finished car, also still undecided but I may use a Kirkey seat in the car as well.

Ok It's been a while since my last update. So I now have a new trunk floor And new rear panels for the chassis I opened the trunk lid and added some strips to support it in place Added the shock mountings to the chassis And a couple of quick test fittings of some parts Hopefully once I have the rear arches sorted all I need to do is get some A/N fittings and then it's on to painting and assembly.

Really nice build. The colour combinations work really well on this build.

That is one hack of a good looking car you have made there. It looks like a really nice clean build as well

Welcome to the forum and looking forward to seeing a few of your builds

Very nice and detailed build you have here. I look forward to seeing the finished version. Also nice trick with the epoxy putty, I may have to try that one myself.

Nice job on that one. The paint looks excellent

Really nice looking start. I'm looking forward to the finished model.

Not 100% yet but I'm thinking blue and sliver with the chassis in blue.

Right here we go, update time. I will say I don't actually build this fast it just happens the last photos were quite old. So we have the chassis nearing completion, the body now has enlarged wheel arches and the bumpers are de-chromed for the time being and some parts have been painted along with the wheels. And to finish a quick shot of it on the shelf awaiting more work with a friend

Love the paint work, really looks good on the car.

At the moment this is the only one of it's type I have, but there is a Nova in the works to keep it company. For me it's a little bit of an add one because I've only ever been to one oval race in the USA but that was Pocono a few years back. I did race short oval in the UK though and in a couple of weeks (maybe sooner) I'll have a build of the car on my avatar.

Really nice details on this one. I have to take my hat off to you I can't recall the last time I saw brake lines added as details.

First off sorry for the first few photos being of such poor quality the only camera I had at the time was my phone. I’ll have some more pictures up in a couple of days of the progress since these were taken. Anyway I’ve always liked these cars (even though I haven’t ever seen a real one) so I decided to have a go at one. The body is from the Revell Nova ss kit while the chassis is a narrowed version on a 1995 AMT Monte Carlo NASCAR. Most of the large parts of the cage have been built from styrene rod as well as the new front to the chassis (Not pictured here yet) More photos are avalibe in this album:https://imageshack.com/a/aRrq/1 So enjoy and all comments are welcome.

Very nice for a first build.

That is a really nice car Tyron, Should look really good once the body is painted.

Not really much to say one this one. AMT Vega built box stock. Enjoy

This was one of my first builds to not be built box stock. The chassis is a modified Monogram Thunderbird NASCAR while the body was from an AMT kit (which I didn’t like the chassis from) There are some small problems with this car in my opinion but I don’t think it went too badly. In future I will also have a better background for photos. There are also build photos in the album: https://imageshack.com/a/ORrq/1 Enjoy

Hello to all of you. My name is Alistair Walker; I'm a motorsport engineering student from the UK. I have also had previous racing experience doing ¼ mile oval racing in the UK. I’ve been building for a few years since I was around 13 ish. In terms of what I build I tend to stick to 1/24 scale and generally I build race cars. In terms of what types I build I love pretty much all types of racing with the exception of formula cars so I tend to build just about anything. I have a few ongoing projects at the moment including group C cars and short oval cars from the USA and the UK. So that’s pretty much all there is I can think of. Anything else feel free to ask and I’ll get round to posting some builds soon.
