I haven't seen one of these in years! I have about six of them I bought back in the mid eighties.
They are a resin type material and were made to paint to match the race car. They have outlines of the numbers and the sponsors so it was pretty easy to paint.
I have mine put away in a safe place but will hopefully get back on display one day soon. Maybe even post some pictures.
I have Dale Earnhardt's Wrangler Monte Carlo, Darrell Waltrip's Budwieser Monte Carlo,Neil Bonnett's Budwieser Monte Carlo, Richard Petty's STP Grand Prix 2+2, Kyle Petty's 7/11 Thunderbird & Bill Elliott's Coors Thunderbird.
As a Geoff Bodine fan I bought another Monte Carlo kit and filled in all the lines and made a replica of his Daytona 500 winner.
These things were really interesting and a nice addition to my NASCAR collection.
I don't believe I ever got the Davey Allison car but will have to look in the box I've kept them in all these years.
Thanks for sharing this car with us as it brings back a lot of memories.

Glad to hear you collected the whole set! Never seen them before, it looks like the seller also has the Wrangler Earnhardt Monte Carlo as well. They look really good considering they were likely whittled from scratch then cast. |
