65 Chevelle dirt tracker
« on: June 30, 2017, 05:52:56 PM »
Modelers,

This build is the finished product of Modified Stocker kit that was sent to me because the body was twisted.  And after several tries  the original owner gave up trying to straighten it out and sent it to me.

 :)  It's a dirt tracker, all right.  Very nice.  Love the two tone blue.

Nice job on the dirt late model, well done. That  body style Chevelle made a very nice looking late model in my opinion.

This really turned out GREAT!!

Was not my favorite frame/rear axle when I built one of the original issues back in the day.....
From the looks of this build, the "trick" is to install the rear axle on top of the rear springs....
bought another one of these kits a few years ago.....

Turned out good! I am building this kit, too. On a NASCAR chassis for asphalt, but I'm just not feeling it. I like youes, gives me a little inspiration.

Great save on this one.
I'm with Slim........ I have one, but put it back in the box each time I try to figure it out.......  ???
You turned it into a nice one for sure.

That paint scheme is cool. The two tone blue with gold numbers really look good...
