Olds Short Track Stocker
« on: March 05, 2018, 11:20:09 PM »
This is not a replica build but a fictional car and driver I built from another one of those group builds.  The Driver is Delbert Hoyt, Aire to the Hoyt-Clagwell Tractor empire famous for his Cream Separator and Scented Wax Candle Business.  This was built from the Mono Hardees Olds kit with some minor changes.  I have no idea who made the decals, they were getting old and I wanted to use em before it was too late.  Paint is Krylon rattle can paint, rubbed out and a coat of clear.  This was a quick build but it was fun.

Another really neat car. That's a tough looking front view!

Ummm…….I hate to disappoint but your info of Del Hoyt is way off.  When yer bored and have nothing to do, go over on another channel and you can get the full story on Del and the Podunkville based team and their 2016 SNRA season.  You can also learn of his sponsor, B. S. Fuller but don't expect an award winning novel when you read it.

Killer!  Looks 1:1 in that first shot.  Very nicely done.   8) 8)
Professional driver on closed course.  Do not attempt.

Fantastic build, Lefturns75!!!  Looks like a race winner for sure.  By the way, I think Oliver Wendell Douglas had a Hoyt-Clagwell tractor on Green Acres...🤗👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻😎🏁

You are starting to "Get" the whole idea Greg.  Not sure anyone else has.

Excellent build, it looks real with the background.
