My son dropped this kit off over the weekend - a delayed Father’s Day gift.
It may be some time before I tackle it, if ever, because I can’t make it up the loft ladders to my build area right now.
….but my mind is wandering, do I build it as shown on the box, like thousands of others - or do I do something different ?
My tastes are more towards drag racing than roundy-roundy racing, so if I can source a set of Cragar SS wheels, or similar, and suitable tyres, that’s the direction I’d like to go. :grin::thumbsup_tone2:

So much of those "NASCAR" kits are roundy-rounds, to convert it to drag racing would be a challenge. If you want something different, how about as a car retired from racing, with battle damage? Just a thought. Long ago MPC? or AMT released early '70s chargers, but they're so rare now and pricey. Anyway, keep it until your best idea forms in your head. Good luck!
