Yep, this is the era of NASCAR that made the transition from a sport mainly for the Deep South to the entire country. The 1979 Daytona 500 was the first NASCAR race broadcast live nationwide and the fight at the end of it between Donny Allison and Cale Yarborough was what shot NASCAR up through the ratings.
That odd line you refer to when masking is called the beltline dip. I couldn't understand how Salvano could make a business of this until I listened to you and watched the video. Very interesting business concept.
Nice kit.. and a very nice build job. What I usually do with something like masking the line of the two tone paint job is.. instead of cutting out the decal and risk ruining it.. I scan it and print it out on regular paper and then I can cut it out with the X-acto knife without handling the decal itself... Just a different idea :) Thanks again for the video.
That is a FINE build on that car. Thanks for the review and pointers on building this magnificent kit, iif is a very nice Kit. Nice to see your build on youtube.. great company at jrsalvino for making it, your pointers on using cheaper paints is nice too.
After seeing the awesome quality of these kits I’m betting that you can pick up those decals with a magnet 🤪! And yeah i like their headers ! Looks great!
I have the #28 Davey Allison car. Paint has faded from when i first got it. But, it's actually still holding together after all these years. Black& white / w gold numbers.
Love it bro! I got my #27 Buddy Baker kit the other day... It looks like a beautiful kit! I'll be starting it next week for sure, thanks for the review and build my friend 🏁🏁🏁👍
Finally!!!! NHRA cars coming!!! I am a happy camper. Can't wait...Great video as usual Chris! Very well done! Love you videos and great place to buy them as well. Thanks for sharing and come on Salvinos...let's see some NHRA very soon...Thanks very much!
haven't built a Nascar kit in long time but these kits do look well made, the 2 you have done look real good and nice to hear a company listens to feedback, that chrome look decal was real cool
Great nascar build. The stock cars are fun to build, there’s kinda of a rhythm to the build. Would you consider doing a car that looked like it finished the 500 miles. Not a crash and burn more of a bump and grind. I’ve seen the decals for tire marks. A few little dents front / rear bumpers and maybe wall scraping. I’m curious how the underbody would look. Oil and grease , smoke stains? Looking forward to the NHRA builds. Thanks again.
Love this car and build.im gonna try out that silver too i like it. One tip i might be able to giv ya....painting real cars for years myself....silver is always a lil fussy...with silver befor you shoot base go back and sand the primered body with very fine wet papers....no courser than 600... 800 or even 1000 is best.
Hey Chris the world's only fully restored,and fully operational, Big Boy locomotive 4014,is getting ready for it's first excursion run;out to Cheyenne for Cheyenne Frontier Days next month.You should consider doing a full build review of Revell Germany's 1:87 Scale Big Boy Locomotive to commemorate the occasion.This is the first time the 4014 big boy locomotive has ever ran under it's own power; down the main lines,in over 60 years!.After Cheyenne Frontier Days,the people at the UP steam works;is going to begin restoration on another iconic piece of American history,UP engine number 3985.That project is expected to take 2 years to complete.
Man ! I really like that black and silver paint ! I always loved the Monte Carlos from the late 70's. 1977 being my most favorite. I hope they will make a Lowrider version of this kit. That would be awesome ! Keep up the good work Chris ! Awesome ! Awesome Awesome build ! I love it !
Another great build Chris! You mentioned Salvinos bought the molds from Revell/Monogram..... any word if they’re going to re-release Darrell Waltrip’s 1982 Mountain Dew Buick Regal? That was one of the first kits I built as a kid and I’d love to build it again with the much advanced skill and painting abilities I have now vs what I had at 7 years old!
There are plenty of ways to get the job done, this was how I did it. I don't own a photocopy machine. Have to make do with what we have at the time. Improvise and overcome.
Hi Hpi. Is there anywhere to get the color callouts as there is none in the instructions. They give you only the body colors. I'm new to Nascar cars and don't have an idea about the interior or chassis colors. Thank you in advance for any tips.
I noticed that you use a lot of Rust-Oleum paints in your bills, I've never had good luck with it as it never seems to fully dry for me. Is there a certain kind a Rust-Oleum paint that I should look for? How long does it take to dry before you can handle it?
I use the 2X brand mainly. I can usually begin working on the painted parts within 6 hours. But I apply THIN coats, just enough to cover the primer. Thick coats would take days and days.
Since the interior and chassis is nothing like a real car, you'd have to use a different chassis and do a lot of customizing, new glass, shave off the window clips, etc. But anything can be done. I joined IPMS for the magazine but that's it.
@@hpiguy I was thinking of kit bashing the revell snap and that kit to make one the interior on the revell kit is pretty good. Imps ruined me after I won a few contests. Now I can only build models that way. Keep up the great work, and thanks for the info!
You go online and the rollcage is red or grey. The flash on this thing is horrible. There is no indication as to what the rollcage and frame should be painted. How did they miss that? This kit except for the body is not new and Salvinos will never get my business again. Amateurs.
