This is my Sterling Marlin #14 Tennessee Volunteer Monte Carlo that he ran a a couple of BGN races. He did it to honor the Vols 1998 football national championship. This isn't an exact replica, couldn't find a ton of reference photos. Thank you for looking.











Edit, I'm not sure why the photo of the back of the car didn't show up? I used the same method of photo posting as with the other pictures. Sorry

Edit #2, Miraculously the photo appeared overnight!  Not sure how that happened.

The magic of computers, they are taking over the world.   Enough silliness, really like this build, although I prefer the older cars. Being an avid Tarheel, not really much of a Vols fan, but can appreciate their accomplishment. Very clean build and nice attention to detail.
When I win the Powerball I will switch to the real ones.

Thanks TarheelRick, even though he didn't do very well with the actual 1:1 car, I've always liked this obscure car. Also a fan of Sterling. I must be honest, NIL stuff, college football is losing some of it's luster to me, but that's another story.

Beautiful Monte Carlo, Steve. Great paint, decal work, cleanliness of build, and the stance is perfect.

Thank you Mark. While in the building process, I thought that I might have dropped the front end to much. After it was finished I liked it.

Great-looking build. Nice homage to the Vols. Good job.
