They ran a design simular to this on the restrictor plate tracks. If you recall, the cars had a high pitch , almost Indy car like sound.This is not a very good representation in my opnion. I got in a little bit of a rush. |

Great job! These decal wraps are a challenge. Did you paint the body before applying the decals? If so, would you mind letting us know the color you used? This is in my lengthy to do list and the under color if used will be highly beneficial. |

Yes I painted the body. Krylon true blue with a fade into Valspar royal blue at the back. Not excact match but pretty close. |

I usually don't take much of a passing interest in anything newer then early 90s, but this is spectacular! Great job! Is the entire body a wrap? _________________ "And on the 8th day God created the Hemi!" |

Thank you. Yes it is pretty much an entire wrap. All decale. Went down alot smoother than I thought they would. |
