Is it Enos or Enoses?

What ever it is.

This is Enos Strates Race car.

Okay, I decided it should be a 2dr and it should have a Hemi..

I had a 2dr Monaco laying around with just enough parts to require some donor parts.

I picked the AMT 1969 Roadrunner chassis and the Hemi..

The decals I have are made for the 4dr so I don't think they're gonna work.

So Maybe paint it on?

The AMT chassis is just a Bit too long so I had to shorten it bit. 1/16-1/8"-ish

Now for me, this was the biggest pain to hack it in half, get the right length and get it squared.

I used some red paint (not blood) on the chassis to see where the MPC interior tub was hanging up.

No gong back now..

Trimmed a bit off of the AMT Firewall and MPC Cowl to get the front wheels centered.

Looks about right?

Did he have a B body Monaco race car? I remember in season 1 it was a 4dr '75 C-tub Monaco, Bluesmobile body style.

"O" It Was a 4dr

But it is always more fun to do things Different.

Deciding between intakes.

Might need a little more room under the hood for those intakes.

This is the hood off of my 4dr Monaco.

The 4dr hood don't quit fit the 2dr body so I may need to find another hoodscoop.
