Here's another old one I built back in 2004-05 IIRC.A replica of Dale Earnhardt Jrs' Monte Carlo he ran in the 2003 Tropicana 400 at Chicagoland Speedway in July of that year.The decals are JWTBM.The paint and clear are all Duplicolor.The resin downforce front nose was made by Modern Motorsport.I added a taller rear spoiler and spoiler braces made from sheet plastic.I lowered it and detailed the interior.Thanks for looking.

Excellent work catpack68! Looks like it would fire right up and drive off. The nose and rear spoiler look great. Thank you for letting us have a look.

Another beauty, Catpack. It also has held up well with time. It's hard to believe it's been 20 years since you built this model. Thats a whole generation.

Really looking forward to you getting into one of the new nextgen cars. I think it would be a slam dunk for your talents and everybody should build at least one of them.

Thanks Mark! I have been working on a Next Gen Camaro for a couple of years now.I really need to finish it up.I started working on a Next Gen Toyota a year ago.I have plans to do a Next Gen Mustang too.I have way too many NASCAR/Short Track projects I need to get around to building.I am just a novice builder.I have a Salvinos Charger I'm working on too.

Hope you do a wip on one of those. Should be very interesting to watch.
