nice work. You did ask for comments so I'll give you a couple. The stock tail light lens were in place at the Daytona 500. And the little red scallopes that are on the hood are also over the tailights. Great job.

Actually I believe Gurney's was a Tally and Cale's was a SpoilerII

Actually I think the Dan Gurney version of the Tally did have a Mustang style wing in the Back. So you're not off at all installing the wing.

Actually it spreads the nose out a little. I think my problem was where the Tally nose attached to the Torino the fenders were to narrow. Tally nose was to wide. Left a hump where they attached. By cutting the core support you could spread out the fenders and not have such a large hump to feather out. It's only about a 1/16" I looked at the car last night. It didn't make the hood fit any worse. Everything looks straight. It's been twenty years since I built the kit and the body work is still intact. Can't say the same for the rest of the car.

I built this kit many years ago as the # 17 H&M nascar race car. To make the front fit better I removed the front radiator wall. attached the Tally front, puddied and sanded, then reinstalled the radiator wall. I'm not the best at body work but this turned out to be my best effort, ever, at the time. You could probably just split the radiator core support. It moved the front apart about 1/16" .

use the cammer out of the 66 or one of the AMT reissue Funny Cars

$30.00 at the LHS

Great job on everything. Always liked the Bonnett, Purvis ride, simple but nice.

Hey man nice build. What kit is the Boss 9 from? I started on a 66 Gal. with the cammer but like the idea of the boss 9.
