Title: 1967 Mario Andretti Daytona 500 winner
Post by: MarkJ on August 07, 2025, 09:10:29 AM
Another bucket list car for me because I have never done an Andretti car or a Fairlane before. I will be adding some photos of the making decal process as well. Below is the kit

Thanks, Steve. Having to make the decals first. Almost through with the 427 C.I. decal then all that are left are the right door 11, the roof 11, and the trunk 11. After I make those I can make the color sheet and the white inlay sheet and then I can start building the model.

It will be changed. Found out what it really is. Just haven't got around to it yet. Early version of solder seal.

Looked right to me... just kinda out of place on a race car.  ;D
