Hi

Starting with a damaged 1988 Buick Regal body and a incomplete Nascar chassis in 1:24.







The target was the 1988 Daytona 500 Winner.



4 weeks later with new Powerslide decals, scaleproduction photo etched parts and tamiya paint the result looks great...enjoy it.

That's a beautiful build. My favorite BA car, along with his Coke , Cam 2, other Miller cars. You did a fine job!

Few things make me happier than seeing a model get rescued like that. Wonderful.

I just noticed the windshield bars and rear filler panels. Very nice touches. Great build.

And what's odd about me, I'll try to rescue a kit that I can buy for $5.00. Don't know why. Just hate to see them tossed.

Very nice save. Looks like the first guy kept the hood shut. Still has the sprue beams that protect the body in the box.
