'What if' Petty Superbird :)

[Howard Cohen]

What if Richard Petty had built a Superbird for Le Mans? I took this old JoHan kit that was missing a few pieces and built a simple LeMans car. The nose, tail and front fender vents are molded in, as per a photo from the Petty museum; I added in front and rear window braces, two seats (Le Mans rule), left the engine basically race stock with the original kit valve covers molded in Petty Blue, and the usual race stuff, painted it French Blue and there it is  Nice simple, fun, build.

That is pretty cool. If not mistaken Chrysler France did use the 70 Cuda on Le Mans.
