1965 Freddy Fryar Chevelle

[MarkJ]

For some reason I can't find my original post.  Anyway, this is one awesome short tracker.  Sweet colors and I really like that scratchbuilt quick change.  I am a '65 Chevelle freak, whether short-track, drag, or street I love them all.

I agree. The mid 60's chevelles make cool race cars.

Very cool Chevelle, Mark!!
Your detailwork is amazing, especially on the chassis.
Very nice job 

Thanks, Michael. I really appreciate the kind words.

On another site Freddy's son Clint  gave me a nice message.   "Mark , this is my dad's car and this is so awesome. Great job with this".  This was an unexpected plus from doing this build. I thanked him and told him I hoped that I got it some what correct and showed him the main picture I used for the build

Mark J. you nailed it bud! Seems like every time Freddy came to Nashville he was in a different color car and often a different number. Very nice work sir.

Thanks, 421sd. He was surely  a cut above all the local drivers at Meyer speedway when he would visit back then. His equipment and driving ability stood out as something really special. I guess that's why I always wanted to build something he drove.

That is just too cool, Mark.
Love the color combo on this one.
And to get the attention of FF's son was a nice bonus.

Love it, Mark. I have been treated to a lot of really well done models here recently. Where did you get the Honest Charley decals??

Marty, I had to make all the decals for this build . They are inkjet from my computer.
