Here is a quickie build that I am doing. Pretty much an out of the box Revell funny car kit with slight adjustments made to the ride height. The body is a resin body from Performance Detail Products as well as their decals. It's almost ready for clear coat and then once that cures and is rubbed out then I can complete the final assembly.

Very nice!

One of my favorite funny cars.

Does Performance Detail Products have a website?

PDP no longer exists. From time to time you might find folks online/Ebay that might have some items for sale. When they were around in the late 90's the company had resin bodies and decals to do a few 70's era funny cars. I remember the 73 Charger body, 72 Satelite and a early 70's GTO body. They had decals to do the car above, the Muldowney Satelite, Arnie Beswicks GTO, Wild Willie Borsch 73 Charger and the silver Mr. Norm's early 70's Charger.

IIRC, PDP was out of Carol Stream, IL, and they had a nice lineup of aftermarket decals and detail parts.

This is looking good Wayne.

The decals are some I've never seen.

Clear Coat!!!!!

Yeah, there are a lot of builds that I clear coat these days even though I know that it's not historically accurate for the time. Even though this is a glorified shelf model it still needs to pop, and the clear seems to do just that.

PDP decals were top of the line.....maybe the best quality drag decals produced. I'd put their stuff a notch above Slixx and better than 90% of the best Alps decals.
