Thank you Folks for ALL the comments. This build id starting to come together...finally. I'm taping off the stripe area on the camper today. I'll shoot that and then get ALL the trim either shot with Alclad or BMF it...haven't made my mind up on that yet.

Well...this part of the RACE TEAM is finished. Now...it's time to build the Sprint car and then the trailer. I think I'll probably be building both at the same time. Here are a few finished pics of the truck. The Sun peeked out from the clouds just long enough to get a few pics.

Man, that looks real! This is such a cool project, it looks like your about to head out and do some racing once the sprinter and trailer are finished.

Thank you ALL for the GREAT compliments. This has taken a little longer than planned but...as we know...some things take just a little longer to do.
The trailer( I'm starting with the Revell tandum) and the Sprint car body from Gary Doucette.... are on the bench and waiting for me...I'm still debating on a Dirt or Asphalt car. Oooorrrr...maybe both...as they did do that back in the 70s.

Hey Duane...thanks for the compliment. I started on the Sprintcar body last night. Still doing the measuring thing and mock up stuff. Not much to show as far as pics go yet. As soon as I can get something that's worth looking at...I'll start the wip... Thanks again for looking in.
