|
This Revell Monogram kit represents the Rusty Wallace Ford Taurus Miller Lite Elvis car from the 1998 Bristol night race.
Tamiya TS-15 Blue and TS-26 Pure White. The chassis is SEM 61113 Chassis Gray.
I modified the exhaust and air cleaner to represent that of the later Taurus kits. I also tucked in the wheels slightly. Other than that, it is box stock.
I purchased the decals from Mikes. I don't recall the maker (Sunset maybe). These were good quality decals, but a bit inaccurate based on the one photo and grainy youtube video I could find. To more closely match the blue and make it more accurate, I ended up recreating the hood and front end music notes decals and used a mixture of Slixx and older kit decals I had laying around.
This body started its life as a John Deere model about 15 years ago, but after messing up that paint job, I dumped it into the junk box. I realized I could strip the paint and resurrect it, so here it is.
