Well with MPR's fantastic looking #72 Gas Monkey Camaro I am going to try my hand at my first Diecast conversion. I picked up a AJ Allmendinger #47 last November for a good price with the thought in mind of doing this car since I knew MPR was working on the decals. I successfully disassembled the car without breaking a single part, stripped the paint from it and have primed and put on the Gas Monkey color. Next steps will be a little clean up and clear coat.

I'm probably MPR's biggest fan, his decals as stated above lay down so perfect over contours without any setting solutions. As a matter of fact, I just got done applying some this past weekend. In my opinion, MPRMPRMPR and the newer Powerslides are the best darn decals out there. Also, if it's a darker car, MPR includes a sheet of white underlays so there is no bleed through. _________________ Would love to have time to finish but I have kids:
