Thanks, Jim. Well that's good to know. There might be fit issues if the die cast body was used. I once bought a resin impala body that I'm pretty sure was made from a diecast and if you compare it to the revell kit impala body its noticeably bigger. I had to use a 1/24 scale kit for the chassis for it. I did that build before the snap kit revells came out.
You can see why they needed to add a lot more stands to Michigan back in the day. Now the new stands are mostly empty. Texas World was just like Michigan, but it never came close to a sellout. Never got a good weather date. Either too cold in December or way too hot in late june.
Do you know the reason for the red stripes? Possibly a team car painted the same way and they needed a way to tell them apart? Things like this peak my interest. Again , Awesome job on this build.
