I loved NASCAR in the 70s...nice picture find Rich!

Love the Mercury and any old school NASCAR. It will look similar. ;) rr

Very nice find on the picture and can't wait to see the T'bird get done. I was a huge fan of Nascar in the 70's and couldn't wait for the Wide World of Sports to come on, and man would I get tee'd off when they'd interupt the race for some stupid other junk that I'm sure no one of cared for. :mad: If I close my eyes I can still hear Jackie Stewart giving commentary... A year or two before Days of Thunder came out, I completely lost interest.. Too commercialized, the cars weren't the same anymore (or they all looked the same)... I completely lost interest. I can sit down and watch the old races from the 60's and 70's all day, but Nascar is nothing like it was back in the day..

Wow, Rich - you found one of the most iconic cars from NASCAR that I can think of. Back in the day, "stock cars" actually looked like stock cars. Who wouldn't think about a trip to the local Mercury dealer after seeing this low slung, automotive missle? Thanks for the memories. :drunk: :hat: :freak: :dude:

I found this one on ebay a few years ago. sorry the pic isnt clear, i will take one in a few days time.

It's been a while since I posted anything on customs, and since there is very little feedback in the LED post, I am left to assume most of you guys aren't seeing these. First of all, the lindy surf van is done.

Seen here with my Mead bro's 68 barracuda.. Next up is my first lighted project car.. This was done up with 1 LED and fiber optic cable. She's a good runner, but I'm not satisfied with the light output.

Last but not least, my latest project.. This is my first attempt at 4 LEDs in a JL nova. All the LEDs required some modification for the installation, and other than the fact it was done with a JL chatterbox chassis, I guess I'm happy with it.I still need to do a paint touch up on the bottom of the LEDs.. I'll do better with the next one, I hope..

The builds to both these cars are in the LED 101 class thread if anyone's interested!!


NutherJoe

Smokin' Joe,

I love these builds and think the Nova is Way KOOL!

Bob...LEDs in that Nova just say Night Race baby...zilla

Looking goooood Joe!!! I'm a Nova fan myself, those lights bring her to life. Thanks for the engineering work!!! I may have to taclke it one of these days or should I say nights...RM

I just wanted to say thanks for the LED tutorials and think that the results are fantastic. That's something I plan to play around with whenever I get back to messing around with these things.

Damn, now I have to learn LED electronics. Anyway here's detailing started of my next one. :rolleyes: rr

I guess I'll have to build a "Rasins" car...

:drunk::hat::freak::dude:

I totally thought the orange hue was overexposure from the flash! But now, there's no mistake that this was intended to be orange. In any case, looks sweet! Like the seventies stock cars. :thumbsup:

Tbird is looking good!! Was a big fan of nascar in those years!! When I do decals I usually need two full sets 'cause I always screw up half of them!! That's got to be the trickest paint job on the saleen I've ever seen!!! The quality of the customs here on HT never cease to amaze me!!! :thumbsup:

Nobody seemed to notice that a fiendish Skaven is about to steal the gnarley dechomitized Corvette so he can trade it for warpstone. (If you don't know what a Skaven is, you need to play Warhammer or read the novels. No, really. Way. :freak:)

P.S. It was sold at Auction last year and a guy I work with bought it and got it road worthy again. He just sold it and now is running around Nebraska someplace.

P.S. to the P.S. We call my cousins Grandfather Hoppy because, when he drives a vehicle with a stick he kinda hops.....hahahahah True story. :)

Wish I did have a stash, would be great. Just some of the chassis I've picked up that had them. As far as the rainbow, the green one has gone to a new home. May have to do another. ;) rr

Road Runner You did a really nice job on that !

Looks like it is ready to rock & roll, RR! Nice job! :thumbsup:
