Joy Fair Camaro 1972
« on: March 21, 2018, 07:46:32 AM »
Legendary Joy Fair was probably the first guy in the Midwest to switch from the trusty Chevelle's of the day to smaller, sleeker Camaro. He rolled this one out late in 1971 and continued to drive it until early 1973 when we was involved in a bad crash which totaled the ride at Toledo Speedway. He won a ton of races in it!

I used a super stocker chassis, big donkey tires, added a few odds and ends to it, used a new decal guy from FB, Dennis Satouris who did a fine job on this set. Thanks for looking!

Like the detail of the windsheild wiper, mirror and door handle holes.
Is the body from the super stocker kit also?
Great looking car.

Very cool looking car (to me the model looks better than the original car!).

I like the bodystyle of the early Camaros !!

Very cool Camaro build Jim. I never got to see these asphalt cars run, but it looks like you could put some dirt tires on it and it'd be right at home. Great job as usual.
