Found this drawing of the Dry Sump Oil System. Posted if anyone is interested! Gerald

I like it! Nice unusual car ! Gerald

Thanks for the link!! Here's what I found if anyone else is interested!

Tim, Thanks for the heads up with the crossmember! I had to remove about 1/32" from it. Gerald

Really nice, love WIP! Gerald

Very nice, what body did you use? Gerald

The 1/24th scale tires seem to fill the wheel wells of the longer wheel base cars better. But I don't know if it's accurate? But I see the same a lot of the time. Gerald

Is the body an old MPC version? How did the PL chassis fit? Gerald

I will build a test engine like the one I'm using! Thanks for your help, this a great point the front beam may need trimmed a little. Thanks, Gerald

Got a little chassis work done. I'm using the AMT 1969 Plymouth GTX kit for the chassis. Removed the gas tank and filled the gas tank opening and chassis holes. Added a piece of Aluminum tube as the base for the shifter and rebuilt the front frame and motor mounts. Started opening up the firewall for the battery and oil tank. Please give me any opinion that will correct anything else you see wrong. Gerald

Looks like a lot work ahead, can't wait to see how it turnout! Gerald

That's cool!!! Gerald

Really nice! Gerald

You are most likely correct. That makes a lot of sense. From what I can tell Bobby used a Tan colored seat in his Chargers? Does anyone have any good photo's, drawings or anything else of the dry sump oil system ran in the '69 Mopar racers. I think this car ran that system. Need a pic of the oil pan. Thanks, Gerald

Looks great! Love the detail work. Keep it going! Gerald

Thanks guy's. I'm working on a Nichel's chassis for this car. I'll post some pic's soon, to get some opinions. The more eyes the better!! Thanks again. Gerald

I was leaning toward flat black. What Krylon of Testors paint colors would be a good body color match? Thanks, Gerald

Thanks for sharing. Gerald

Anyone have any ideas on the interior, frame and roll cage colors!

Very nice! Gerald

Seems I recall a driveshaft going through Earnhardt's windshield! I think at Pocono, I think it hit him in the face but he finished the race! Gerald

Really nice, the body work is great!! Gerald

Looks great! Seems like you build one a week!! Love the late 60's and '70's cars. Gerald

This good stuff guy's! Are you guy's using .080 plastic rod for the roll bars that you replace? Going to get a couple of T-Bird kits and see what's what! Gerald

I have a question about this kit, is the chassis and engine bay correct for this car? My intent is to use this kit to build Earnhardt's 1976 Army car and detail it's engine and engine bay. Any and all help with pic's, drawings, opinions or any other help! Thanks for your help! Gerald
