MPC Petty Roadrunner

[Rodent]

Two questions:

1. Has anyone tried to mate (can you say this on the forum?) an old MPC Petty Roadrunner body with a Salvino's Charger frame, engine, etc? We all know that the original MPC stuff wasn't that great.

2. Does anybody make reproduction decals for said Petty Roadrunner?

Thanks!

Yes......in multiple scales

Thanks Kevin. I ordered a set last night.

Salvino's has mentioned that they will be producing a 1971-72 RR at some point in the near future. I had a MPC kit which I had been saving to build as a NASCAR version, but those plans have changed..

I didn't hear that about a Salvino's Roadrunner. Seems like a natural for them. I have the remains of an MPC Petty Roadrunner that I was wondering how easy it would be to update it with a Salvino's chassis.
