Short Track and NASCAR modeling

I prefer brazing rod or MIG rod myself. Stick rod is worthless as you have to knock the flux off and then either sand or buff the residue off.

I painted the sides of the test body with Tamiya white primer and will shoot Createx Wicked red on one side and plain old Createx wicked gold on the other side. Luckily, I found a bottle of it in my stash that had not separated out from age. It appears to be more metallic than the pearl gold I used the first time. If it looks good, I will start preparing the Monte Carlo body for paint.

Thanks, Dave. I guess I'm just going to have to guess on the interior and under the hood. Probably just keep it oob but I'm pretty sure it had a double snorkel air cleaner so I will make one of those. The oob air cleaner would have gotten in the way of the distibutor on a chevy. It was probably a lot like the air cleaner the number 3 Chevy had in 1963.

It appears to be the July 1972 issue, i did a lil research online for ya. But that's the best i could do, no one scanned the contents that i could find.

Got the gold on but need to prime the real build white. The gray makes it look too dark. Need to add the red and test my color separation line ability. Thats my new airbrush that is making my airbrushing so much easier.

That would be great if someone could post it, if it is over here.

There was an article published in Stock Car racing magazine back in 1972 that showed Allison building the Monte Carlo. Somebody on the old NASCAR forum saved a copy. Maybe it was brought over here in the archives?

Thank you Razorback 46!

Jh. Below are some recent photos that will answer your question and show the test bed body primed and the decal sheet I will use and hope I don't mess up because there's only one chance per decal on this sheet to get it right. Not like the sheets I make with 5 spares per decal sheet.
