Richard Petty's '73 Dodge Charger

[Merkur XR4Ti]

Built from the recently-issued brand new Salvino's kit. The Rocket Red is all decals, I only painted the blue (Tamiya TS-23). I didn't have to make any mods except narrowing the rear track; the stance is right out of the box using one rear spacer just like the instructions said. This was a very fun build.

Very nice Steve.

Beautiful build. I am still amazed on how you managed such huge decals.

[Captain Spaulding]

Nice! I'm impressed with your decal work too. Even the best decals require patience and talent to get right.

Awesome build Steve. I just received mine , did yours come with the red decals or are they aftermarket decals?

I got the vermillions from Salvino's as I'm a member of their builders club. I believe they are also available at Mike's Decals.

Thanks Steve.

I HATE IT, when I see how bad I am at decals compared to some of you. Looks like a fantastic job you have done.

Beautiful build! ? That was my first Kit of the Month when I joined the Builder's club several weeks back, haven't started on mine (but could not resist cracking the box open for a look see....or 3 look see's, LOL)

Awesome looking NASCAR racer, Steve - for me, the STP Petty Dodge is one of the best looking stockcars ever.
