jdcar32 Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 So back in 1994 I thought a Nascar style truck would be a fun build, this was several months before the actual series was announced. The 1994 AMT F-150 donated body and bed. Bill Elliots McDonalds T-bird donated the rest. I modified the chassis and the cage to suit the F-150. Everything else is from the T-bird kit plus some plumbing and wiring. The window net is masking tape. Note the separation between body and bed, not typical of the smooth side 1:1 trucks on the horizon. This build has always lived in a plastic case, thus it has stayed very fresh for 18 years.
Scuderia Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 It all fits so well, thats way too cool. Great thinking, super build.
bbowser Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 Nice job, you were ahead of the times. I never would have thought Nascar would race trucks.
jdcar32 Posted June 30, 2012 Author Posted June 30, 2012 #27 was Jimmy Spencer. Your right, of course Elliott was #9, was this kit a Spencer car? I don't recall...........
bbowser Posted June 30, 2012 Posted June 30, 2012 Jimmy ran the #27 in McD colors for a year or 2. I have about 4 of the Monogram kits in the stash.

Plasticfanatic Posted July 1, 2012 Posted July 1, 2012 Looks great from all angles, like your concept even more than the actual racers that where design and used at the time.
