Are you looking for pictures of the real car, or other models build of this car?

I started a detailed build of the 1984 car but could not figure out what to do with the radiator and the build stalled. I had a thread on the old forum about it. It is hard to find pictures of the old cars, but the articles written by Clay Kemp in Scale auto magazine were my inspiration.

I want to resume this project.

I will see if I have any reference pictures. I just do not remember what I have.

I'm looking for photos of the 85 red and white bud car. I would like to do the very best I can do on this car. I'm a DW fan from the Gatorade days I remember the Monte Carlo named Bertha. She ran real good. Thank you guys.

Billy, I can't get it to link but if you will google rk auctions junior johnson Budweiser Monte Carlo for sale it should be of some help. This car has sold and it has '88 sheet metal, but is an '85 superspeedway chassis. Some great interior and underneath shots.

Jackpot!

Thanks for mentioning this. now I need to summon the courage to scratchbuild all those details.

Notice it is a rear steer chassis, so if you want to be totally accurate you will also need a thunderbird kit for the chassis.
