Short Track and NASCAR modeling

Thanks Dave! Yes, Mark, that's the car! Wish me luck..

Tom

Nice start. Keep up good work.

Looking good, I'm guessing that is the Daytona car. That was Gann Racing, didn't they get absorbed up in that Earnhardt Ganassi deal? Really thought Mark ended up with a good team after that 500 finish.

got the right side cutout done, not quite as pretty as the left side but whatever... tested out the exhaust fit.





interior was just painted, should have the body primed and painted in the next few days

Tom, Is this what it will look like. I was at the 1990 Firecracker 400 and saw this car battle Dale Earnhardt close to the end of the race. He put on a pretty good fight for a couple of laps, but Earnhardt ended up winning.

I reshaped the nose a little, filled in the front of the front wheel openings. JNJ decal. The decal fit isn't perfect, but I'm liking the look of it anyway. It'll have a gray chassis, borrowed this one to mock it up.

it looks that they are still pending for his site but Clay Kemp somehow got ahold of a set of the #7 decals and posted the finished build on Twitter.

i also have to figure out how to secure the boom tubes in place, they don't clear part of the rear suspension.

got a little more done, everything but the body is painted (due to the skirt mods not being done on one side yet) and a few things need to be detail painted, like the roll bar padding.




as implied above, i did get the left side skirt mod done.  it's a bunch of strip, cut and some sanded.  the side that faces out is 3 pieces, and there is multiple pieces on the backside to brace it all, along with tabs to mount it.  i tried to sand it some to blend the pieces together, but that was a pain due to the size and the fact that it's a little bit fragile.

Heck yes! I was hoping for an update today. She's really coming along Razorback. Thank you for posting this.
