Here's a 66 Galaxie quickly painted up for the big event at the local dirt oval.
This was my first attempt at putting screwposts on a body. :freak: I also learned that a red Sharpie marker will run :mad: when sprayed with ColorPlace clear coat.
But after a few laps no one will notice with all the other dings and dents.
Hope it runs better than it looks :tongue::lol::tongue:

Nice color choice Jerry!!! I likes that yeller/red package. Like you said, once you get running, it's just a blur anyways. Markers do tend to run as I found out painting this old racer. The black stripe moved on me. I got in to big of hurry with the clear. It's been run hard, patched up, & touched up, but keeps on going...RM

Jerry,

That is a fun looking dirt racer and bet it is just as much fun to drive.

You are really coming around with your customs and a 2-tone to boot! Jerry's Towing on the trunk really makes it even a tad bit cooler and I am sure funner (yeah that is a word...not) to drive.

Bob...Gotta love dirt on Fridays...zilla

The wheels are Road Race Replicas Narrows. They don't a;ways run true but they look good.
