That oil tank looks GREAT! John

Nice underside shots of the Roadrunner Tim. They show me that my last '68-'69 Mopar is more correct underneath than I thought! John

You're right Tim. In fact, of the 15 starts he made in that car in '70, I'm not sure I've ever seen two photos where it was configured exactly alike! John

Thanks for posting this Ed. Some really great shots of the various body details of the Aerocars in that video. I was lucky enough to have had my older sister and brother-in-law take me to the 1970 Southern 500 (for my 15th birthday!) and witness the Wing cars and Aero Fords race before their exit from the sport. That was ALSO the day I found out that you could go down to the pits after the race and the teams would allow you to peel souvenir decals off the cars! STILL have one of the #40's off the rear of Pete's Superbird almost 50 yrs. later. John

That is really outstanding!. The separation and pinstriping are perfect. One of my two top favorite liveries of all time and while the '70 Torino turned out not to be "shaped by the wind", as the ad said, it did make one fine looking race car. John

Yep, they are pretty stout in that kit. I found that the cages from the PL Mercury and Talladega can be substituted for the Dodge cage with only a little fitting and has a much closer to scale appearance. John
