NASCAR from the 60's and 70's

I started making some simple models from my favourite era of NASCAR. These models took me about an hour each to make. First up is Elmo Langley's Mercury Cyclone and David Pearson's and Cale Yarorough's Ford Torino Cobras.

Thanks for looking,
Brent

Nice work Brent...
I really like the 3d wheels.
(What's the scale?)
All my best to you for the New Year!

Thanks guys for your kind comments.
The scale is the same size as the KoolWheelz Superbird. I built that model first repainted as Pete Hamilton's car. I then down scaled the Paperdiorama Superbird and built that. I then did some more recolours of the Paperdiorama car.

They look great. I've been searching for the Mercury Cyclone papermodel kit by Cornell Racing Center for years, but to no avail. Cornell designed the free Aston Martin DB9 model years ago.

I had never heard of this kit. I googled "Cornell Racing Center mercury cyclone" and a copy of the kit came up for sale. The site might be in Czechia.

Thanks Brent but I'm still coming up empty. Maybe I should try a different search engine beside Google and Bing.
