Great job! I've got a set of those decals, always liked that car. -
Those are some great looking wheels, as is everything else you've done. I especially like what you did with the roll cage. Growing up and living in the south pretty much my whole life, I was never exposed to a lot of modified racing, especially on asphalt. That said, I've always thought that MPC missed the mark on the cages in this particular series. I'm enjoying your build.

Dirt track vette

I remember back in the 80's when some of the fiberglass companies were making Corvette bodies for late model dirt cars. A guy from Bruce, MS (Jerry Inman #D-7) ran one for a season or two. Your's is an excellent representation of that era. -
Excellent work, well done!

Thanks for the help Dan. Right now I'm operating off of only my phone. I am going to get a new lap top at some point this year. Hopefully then I can figure it all out. -

Thank you and I don't disagree about the picture size. I don't know how to reduce picture sizes from the gallery on my phone. -

@Safire6 and @Horrorshow, First thanks for looking. I used the Monogram Terry Labonte Kellogg's kit, it's the correct body as far as I can tell. I did lower the ride height a little. The paint is Rust-Oleum gloss "real orange" sprayed over white primer. I took the decal sheet and a picture of the Sterling's 1:1 race car plus wore a TN Vols shirt to Walmart and got the closest color I could find. The decals are from 3 Amigos. In retrospect I wish that I had hit it with a coat of gloss clear. Maybe next time. Thank you for your kind comments, Go Big Orange!!! Edit; The Terry Labonte Kellogg's kit is Revell Monogram #85-2479. The Jeff Gordon Revell Monogram kit #85-2476 would work as well.
