Started to lay-up all the decals and stickers. I didn't realize that there were so many. I tried several different variations before settling on one. The blue painters tape will be a silver stripe running the length of the car.

I only finished both sides tonight. It took longer than I expected. I have more to go on the sides but don't have them yet. Front and rear still has to be done along with the windshield. Ever since I was a kid watching stock car races on TV with my Mom and Dad, I wanted my own race car with an STP sticker on it.
Life is good!

That car is looking tough! I just started adding vinyl to mine this week too. It definitely makes it look the part of a track car.

Great build!

Thanks! I needed to make the car look like something is getting done. I'm tired of doing all this work and everything looks the same. At least now it looks like some progress has been made.


I did get a little done tonight. Got a new J boot in and sealed off the two vacuum lines. I had an old broken broom stick laying around so I cut the end straight and then turned it down to fit. Cut the turned part off and installed.

Installed the rear Koni's.

I got these camber plates used from Bennington's. Who ever they belonged to before must have had trouble with them. The bearings in them were frozen. A new set of bearings will make them like new.
