sflam123 Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Here is an older Monogram Sprint Car kit built to replicate Brad Doty's Marks & Keppler owned Coor's Light car from about 1987. It is a painted in Testor's Silver and Metallic Blue. I used decals from several different kits to replicate the original car as best I could. Hope y'all like this one. Steve
roadhawg Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 Very nice! You pulled it off quite well.
Intmd8r Posted September 30, 2012 Posted September 30, 2012 CLEAN CAR !!!!! Michaelj... VERY unusual for a dirt track car lol. @sflam123: You should throw some mud on this puppy to get that race worn loook. Nice build all the same. Steve
sflam123 Posted October 1, 2012 Author Posted October 1, 2012 Thanks for the comments guys. Actually Intmd8r, Marks and Keppler were almost fanatical about keeping the car clean. It came in from hot laps, they cleaned it. It came in from a heat race, they cleaned it. We once stayed in the same motel as the team while attending the Knoxville Nationals. They took all the tin off the frame after a night of racing and cleaned it in the parking lot. And this was AFTER they had taken to a car wash!
krazyglu Posted October 1, 2012 Posted October 1, 2012 That is a bit of a miss conception of a dirt track car being dirty as you said. At this level with that amount of money invested they tend to keep these cars very clean. I love sprint's and you did a really good job on this one.
