Title: Johnny Benson Sr. Camaro 1973
Post by: ARCA Guy on January 12, 2021, 04:04:48 PM
I've been consumed with working on real hot rods and missed this place. I did a little work recently getting back to a few builds. Johnny Benson Sr. 1973 early season replica. The same old stuff super stocker chassis with some work, I used the resin body from Mike's decal site, Mike "G" did the fine decals, Big Donkey tires and rims and a few odds and ends - thanks for looking!

That's great.  I always enjoyed Johnny Jr.  I don't know if he still races today or not.  I think he got hurt pretty bad.  Very nice model.

You always do such a good job on these ARCA Guy. Your building skills and your photography are both Top-Shelf. What item number tires are those from Big Donkey?

Very sharp ARCA Guy!  Always loved the 'stock' looking Camaros!

I always enjoy seeing your ARCA builds. Hard to beat the Carmaro body for these.
