Just looking for some info on this car. I've searched everywhere but not much turns up. I'm currently building a Revell 63 to resemble this car. From what I've seen in my searches, this car had a light blue colored interior? Please correct me if I am wrong. I have a Z11 interior tub from MCW. If this isn't correct I also have the bucket seat set from them as well, in case I need them, if the car did not have s bench seat. I also have two sets of decals. Sox & Sinclair from Slixx, and another Fred Cady set Dick Milner, and Green Chevrolet.  Can anyone with knowledge of the old Super Stockers please set me in the right direction on the interior type and the proper decal for the build to be as correct as possible?? Thanks in advance.

........pale blue interior, bench seat, chrome reversed wheels all round......I'd use the Slixx sheet,,,,better quality and more accurate.......keep one thing in mind , though,,,,just about all drag cars from the era that were run by a team for say, one season, or season and a half before being sold off for the next ride usually had decal changes, and sometimes lettering and paint variation thru their times of use also. many times on so many cars I have compared photo after photo from the same season regarding the same car, and have seen several wheel, decal, trim, and other changes,,,,,so, my point is to pick the photo you like the best, and build you kit to duplicate that car on that day.....hope this helps....the Ace....:D.......oh, one other note....noticed in your photo of your kit parts and body that are ready, I would substitute the MH slicks you show for a set of the pie crust MH  style, as the ones you show are a bit wider than what was used generally...just a thought........

Thanks guys. On the decals, I really like that the Cady decals have the aluminum fender top warning. I've seen these on just about every lightweight Z11 car. Maybe I'll use them and add them to the fenders. As for the tires, I don't a pie crust in my whole bin that fits these rims. I was going to try to remove the M&H logos from them. I've tried every pie crust tire I have already.
