    I loved rooting for Richard Petty. As his career was fading I began to cheer for my older brother's favorite Dale Earnhardt, and then Dale Earnhardt, Jr. I never rooted against any of the Alabama gang, or Cale Yarborougho. Bobby was as good as anybody in any kind of racecar. Sheer talent on display and gift from God to have watched him. Beautiful tribute and build. Have fun with your toys!

      Thanks, David. I was a bigger NASCAR fan growing up than I am now. Petty, Earnhardt and the boys are all true legends. Of course you know the great Bobby Allison / Cale Yarborough story which I edited out for time. "I remember Cale kept ramming his nose into my fist." That little dust up was a great plug for NASCAR which we're still talking about today! 🍁☕️🏁

    Exquisite job that one Andrew......ur patience with those decals, really pays off in the end.
    As an aussie, we dont know how big Nascar is in the USA. Our big race...is Bathurst(mntn climb), and Peter Brock one of our legends. Personally...i luved wayne Gardiner....on 500 Bikes, as he powerslid around others,late into corners. Later he swapped to "touring Cars'......and very good there too !!
    ....another top Tribute.....all the best if busy at xmas,New Year. A mate from OZ.

    • @MapleLeafCustoms
      @MapleLeafCustoms  28 дней назад

      Thanks, Jack. I swapped some clear glass out of a regular Charger that I had, which fit the Charger 500. I make and print all of my decals. After sourcing all of the vintage sponsor logos on Google Images, I lay them out exactly as they are on the car. Then I resize them to fit the 1:64 model (trying to make a group of sponsors into one decal). Then I make a Ghost White image of that in exactly the same size, which goes down first. You need a special toner cartridge for that. Then the colour ones are applied on top. Long process but satisfying! There are special printers that do a white background print, all in one step, but that's waaaay out of my retirement budget! 🍁☕️🏁
