This is a build for Dave’s son. This was the last race Dave ever drove in. MPC 500 body that will use a modified AMT Roadrunner chassis .

Tommy did them a couple years ago. Been sitting in my somday I’ll get around to it pile.I got probably 50 sets of decals in there.

I’m playing catch-up with the pictures here. Here’s the chassis under construction.

Those torsion bar chassis were pretty simple!

Super slick looking! I like the combination of colours. I don't follow NASCAR myself, but I bet that looks pretty accurate!

This one is a USAC stock car.
