Nice work Clyde, glad to welcome another stock car builder to the fold. Hope to see more, love the older 60's stuff.

hey Shafer, that is a beautiful rendition of that car. i am a dedicated straight line guy who has an itch to build something different. since i have a bunch of the pro street coronets, i was going to do a fictional 70 coronet nascar. i have a few of the pro modeler 69 daytona which has a bunch of nascar stuff in it. would this be the right stuff? my other choices were a 69 charger 500 or, as you built, a 71 runner. not looking for a dead nuts accurate build, just a close rendition for a shelf model.

thanks,

Tubbs

i would go w/ the charger 500 or general lee car - i do not recal any coronets in the nascar series , but i think they would have looked kool
