Shafer's Petty Model Car builds

[pmossberg]

Love this stuff.

Do you take orders? ;-)

[shafer]

I will only build for my self but what car would you like to see built?

[pmossberg]

I was only half serious. ;-)

When Richard came back to Nascar in 1965, he drove a '65 Belevedere.

Although it probably ran fewer races than any other car, it is among my favorites because I own a '65 Satellite convertible (same body as a '65 Belv.), and my grandfather's last car was a '65 Belevedere.

The body is available as a resin kit and as a 1/18th diecast. I've just never been motivated enough to build Rochard's car out of either body.

You should post a teaser shot of your entire collection.
