My worst day of building STILL beats my best day at work !!

My bad, I posted in the wrong section, I saw USAC and didn't pay attention to the fact this is an open wheel / sprint item. Please move to appropriate spot

This is another very nice build Big Orange. Nice detail on the frame modifications and front torsion bar location. This replica is dead on.

Man, this build is just gorgeous and so lifelike!!!  The bodywork reminds me of the old super modifieds of days gone by!!!  Truly a work of art, B.O.🤗👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🏁

Awesome build. I usually don't like to build sprint cars, but this one sort of stimulates me in that direction.....hmmm, have to see whats in my junkyard!

Man Big O...you did a GREAT job on the body mods. Did you make your own Decals? This puppy looks ready to do business...

great lookin sprinter !!  i worked for the hoffman's for a little over 2 months for the 4 weeks leading up too the Indy sprint speedweek in 1998 and a few weeks after( thats all the time I could take off work at the time so it was all good ) i can tell you nothing on those cars are ever "put back on " when something is taking off a new part is put on in its place great bunch of guys , great cars and not all great drivers but it is what it is when it come to drivers LOL the Hoffman's put class in USAC sprint's and champ car racing ! again very nice looking sprint car
