If Toyota had entered the Winston Cup in 1972 ?

I had no Idea the Crown was that big but seeing is believing . But did Toyota even have a 400 plus cubic inch v-8 back then that could have even qualified for any events on the Nascat schedule in 1972. Great job on this ultimate fantasy build.

In fact, the body size of this crown was smaller than the Ford Mustang of the time.
Also, Toyota's largest displacement engine at the time was a V8 183 cubic inches.
The kit of the Crown I built is actually in 1/24 scale, but I assumed it to be in 1/25 scale.

Thanks, everybody!!

I have received so many comments from everyone, which has been very encouraging for me to build nascar kits far away in Japan.
