Sounds good to me.

Looking good. How do you do your woodgrain effect?

Nothing to see. did you put too much clear on it and it turned clear?

Sounds good to me. Are you going to make the dash look woodgrain?

I blew up the photo and it just says "Dodge" in a signature style font. Looked in google but could find nothing like it.

You could also do Buck Bakers Southern 500 winner. Its basically the same car.

Great job, Dustin. Inside and out.

Will it be a road course car?

Wow, Rick. Awesome job on simulating bent sheetmetal. Would love to watch your process. Was that a particular crash from a particular race? Also, great job on the flatbed.

I don't know whether to give you kudos now or wait for the other 2 %. All joking aside , that is the best Friday Hassler build I have ever laid eyes on. Your model looks better then the real car. Let me ask you again. What do you use for the screen material on the grille? This is another Awesome build from your bench.

Excellent build, John. Everything looks flawless.

Another beautiful build, John.

Oh, yes. This is going to be another home run. Looking forward to completion.

Wow, Tim. Paint and decals look superb.

That's going to be great. What decals are you using? Is that car orange or red? Who is Zhong Shan? Questions, questions, questions.

Looks good. I've usually seen it attached the other direction. Is it because its a road course car, or it doesn't really matter?

I've always wanted to do a Raymond car. Maybe this will give me the inspiration I need to follow through some day. So many builds , so little time.

My gosh , Clay. Your work is just unbelievably too perfect. Always a joy to view.

Real car or fantasy build? What ever, it will be awesome.

Yes, I know the colonades and the monte carlo did not have windows but I remember that the 1973 Malibu teams were complaining that the big missing quarter glasses were making the back glass act like a parachute. And that is why they came out with the colonades in 74 and beyond to help that situation. The olds had a colonnade roof in 77 but it came with the flat nose grille instead of the more wedge shaped grille the gray ghost used. I guess the grille is more important than the roof for speed. The open big quarters did not seem to hurt the gray ghost at all. It dominated the Daytona 500 that it won.

Awesome Job , Gary. I followed the wip on this one and it seems to me it was a very challenging build. As every one can see you nailed it, so I don't think you will have any problem with the Orange Super. Looking forward to watching that one come together.

Looks Awesome , Tim. Your choice of chassis really improves the authenticity of the build. Excellent build in every way. Its weird that the real car did not have 1/4 glasses. Did Nascar out law them or did the car actually run better with out them?

They had to keep running these old bodies I guess until 81 when nascar forced them to go to the smaller more boxy gm intermidiates. a lot of people think the Gray Ghost was a 1980 olds but it was really a 77.

That's not a 78. Gm went to the smaller intermediates that year. I know because I bought a 78 monte carlo. One of the worst cars I ever owned.

Great job.
