Started to try making a Nichels chassis out of the super stock chassis. Cut away the frame rails the areas to be rebuilt!

Thank you!!

I hope to make this car.

While I'm waiting on the paint to dry on the Waltrip car! I thought I'd start something new, the '68 Bobby Isaac K&K Daytona 500 car. The body will be from the Revell 2N1 kit. The chassis will be made from a AMT 69 GTX Super stock kit, I got the chassis cheap! The chassis will require a lot of modifying, but that's the fun part to me. If anyone has any clear pix of the bumpers and grille of the '68 Charger I would love to see them. As always Thanks in advance!!

Very nice!!

Testors Metallic Gold. It's a great color and a little darker than others.

I got to meet and know Bobby at the Cleveland Gran Prix in 1982! Great guy and great family!!

Well got the Gold on the body. Getting the engine to sit level is still giving me fits!!

Thank you everyone!!

Yes!

Great pix! Very similar to the headers I used on my '69 500.

I'd paint it light gray and dry brush it with white!

This started as Tamiya's 1/20th scale Lola/Ford. Converted the engine to a Chevy, detailed the engine side pods and cockpit.

No but I have some nice one's in resin!!

Man that's sweet!!

Those are the one's Howard (Radar43) sent me a set! Soon I'm going to try to mold and cast them!! The bath tub intake I have already cast along with the dry sump oil pan and reserve tank!

Waay cool!!

What 1/25th scale kit 426 HEMI would guy's rate the best to use in NASCAR builds?

I enlarged the reference pix and I only see one brace, I'll go with that!

Anyone know if this car ran with one front windshield brace or two?

That's a sweet looking car Howard! Hope you can find what you need!!

I can't help you with the body, but that would be sweet to see you build that one!

Is this chassis easier to build into the Nichels chassis than the AMT chassis?
