Title: 1995 Ricky Craven BGN #2 DuPont Monte Carlo
Post by: 18degrees on February 11, 2026, 02:03:24 PM
hey y'all... finished this one up last night.  not sure why i was chomping at the bit to get this done but as soon as i got my parts from Jaye i got to work.

Revellogram slab side Monte Carlo kit, Slixx decals that were 30 years old... the decals held up fairly well, there was some cracking and chipping that i was able to mitigate for the most part.  had 2 sheets just in case. paint is Tamiya metallic blue.  parts from Jaye - wheels, hubs, exhaust, dash, shifter, fire bottle, antenna, fuel filler.  there WAS a driveshaft hoop but when i secured the engine in place i forgot to add the driveshaft :o  so when i was fiddling around with the driveshaft, the hoop popped off and went flying... i still haven't been able to locate it.

the car ran in 7 races in 1995 and DNQ'd for 2.
