Absolutely GORGEOUS! All the little details as well as the paint job make this a 1st Class build! Stance is spot on and everything is clean and neat. Well done 18Degrees! Thanks for posting and keep'em comin'!

Great site for super detail items.

the build was a total of about 4 months... some of that delay was attributed to having to order more parts that i either ran out of/dropped & lost... or burnout for a little bit of time. I got down to finishing the engine and stopped to build a Sammy Swindell #1 Kodiak sprint car over the course of a week... woulda been done sooner if not for those delays.

Very nice!! love attention to detail. Quick question what does the upside-down T and the double TT stand for on the tires? Can't find a reference anywhere. Thanks in advance.

Those are marks on the tires for the wheel weight locations. The TT is for the bigger weights, the T is for the smaller ones. They are available on a Powerslide sheet.

Model looks great with tons of little details that sure make a difference. Are these kits curbside? This and the Fusion, I am not familiar with them. Do you have a photo of the underside if that is a detailed part(s)?

Show us more!
