Theres only been a few that have done it that I know of. All depends on how accurate you want it. If I remember right, Clay Kemp did a Danny Drinan Silver Crown car and he used the tires from a F1 car (because they where slicks). I think either the Sammy Channellock kit or the Kinser Superman kit would get you a heck of a start bc it has the correct hood. Call or text me if you need more info.

Quickie update: Got the aftermarket hood in the mail today, added the oil can in front of the left rear shock and added the header mud guards. HOPEFULLY, i will be painting this thing this weekend, then I can start applying decals! Sorry, not the best picture in the world.

No real progress on this car, but I did break these cars out of the display case...............

AND I started working on a Dave Darland #56 Silver Crown Diecast!

Can anyone tell me for sure if the top of the tail tank was white like the hood on this car? TIA!!!
