Allow me to be the first to welcome you Clyde. I would love to say "clean build" but that's not really right for such a well done dirt tracker is it. Nice build. As you can see i'm a Petty fan myself so I hope to see more of your work.

While I prefer the pre-race lineup look, I gotta say that's a beauty of a build. Is that the Jo-Han?

Oh- and welcome to the forum!

yes it is a johan kit

thankyou for the kind words . I used orange spray paint to over spray that clay dirt look and made my own mesh screen for the front. I have sevral petty kits but wanted to build something different.

Thanks so much - this kit and the 1970 roadrunner were 2 of my favorite builds
