What's not to like about them. Great start. Are the frames scratchbuilt?

Bobby, The chassis under the sedan is scratch built and the one under the coupe is a MK asphalt chassis shortened a scale 14 in. Both cages are scratch built. Both will be fully plumbed and wired. The sedan is going to be Gold&black,the coupe Red chassis,Black bod. There will be a lot of gold foil in the decals on both. Both will have Revell nascar Ford engines w/ dominator carbs, DM Mags, and scratch built pulleys. Whew, as you can tell I get a little long winded Ron

Gold looks good. I would go with red hubs.

Decals look even better on the car. The red hubs really stand out on there. Great looking build.

Maybe silver or yellow. I think the gold doesnt work with the colors now.
