Having fun with some MPC funny cars

[ratnasty]

Hello guys I have just about stop making decals for sale . This is the reason why " NO TIME TO BUILD" . I still will offer some from time to time but I was getting burnt out and I really wanted to build something for myself.So this morning I decided to get a couple of MPC funny cars out and get back to the basics (HAVING FUN).So I grab a Nitro Charger (generic MPC car )and paint it and used Chuck Boener 's decals which are awesome to build the Don Prudhomme's Pepsi Challenger. Then I said WOW thats fun , I forgot how fun modeling could be . Then I grab an extra MPC Barry Setzer car I had and drew a set of decals to do the Jim Nicoll Superman 1972 Vega funny car (which is different than the Revell 1974 car).This is why I wanted to learn how to do decals is to build something different and some one off cars for myself and I can't remember when I have had so much fun doing this, even after a 20 hr day doing these to bodies . So tommorow or today Saturday I'll get some sleep and start on some chassis.Here are some pics I hope you enjoy them as much as I did this Friday building them (remeber this hobby is suppose to be FUN.)

thanks guys and goodnight

Got to have fun!

If it isn't fun, why bother? Glad you're back at the bench instead of the computer and having some fun.

Those are great. Looks like you found the fun again. Man, I really need to get me one of those Nitro Chargers to do that Prudhomme car. Of course, its 95-100 degrees and humid every day right now so don't know when I could paint.

Looks killer, and if it's not fun, to me theres no point.

I would be interested in a copy of the vega sheets , just in case.
