Built this one to try out the Alclad candy red paint...not an accurate replica but I had some fun with it. Vintage Johan kit, made a few changes...cut open the rear window, flush fitting windshield and rear window made from clear sheet plastic, rear spoiler blended into body sides, fabricated spoiler extensions, hemi engine and abuncha other stuff. All metal finishes are Alclad.

Beautiful job, bravo!

That was probably the most accurate funny car kit produced in the early 70s, and it’s really overlooked a lot. You did an amazing job! Just Beautiful! Super Clean build!

Wowser...the Mickey Thompson crew would be proud of this one. Just an outstanding build with tons of detail.  Very, very clean build and I gotta say, your photos are Super sharp dude.
