Cripes Gabriel, you got so many builds on the go I thought I had already commented on this completion. Great job on this one, afew more and you'll have your own grid.

Cheers
Michael

No worries, Michael! I am spread these days all over the place, covering a lot of modelling ground, and I'm barely being able to keep pace with myself. And you gave me a very good idea: t never crossed my mind to do a picture or ore with the both cars together!
Thank you so much indeed for your kind words!

Gabriel,
Your two Nascar stock cars really make quite a couple. You did a fantastic double build my friend.

Thanks, D.!
Well, believe me I barely can refrain myself from bursting the plastic bags from that VW, but I have to give priority to other modeling related activities: I still have to write a review for an YT channel and two scripts for another channel; most importantly I need to pull those Heller splinters from under my nail, the P34 / Porsche Newman / Lotus Europa shipment it's supposedly one week away, and today Big Jim approved Ferrari FH70 from AM samples queue to be sent to me. I need to planify in detail my time, otherwise I'll became a Caribbean Damian, with 30-something boxes open at once. Btw, last night I was Drooling over my Aoshima convertible Beetle. LOL! I needed some strength!

Thanks, Russ, thanks Joel. I feel like it's missing a third one, with a mainly green livery! LOL! BTW, Richard, what's the maximum number of builds allowed in one single campaign for one single lunatic?

More useless trivia. For the longest time in NASCAR having a predominantly green car was considered back luck.

Haha! Actually it's the kind of info that gives savour. I noticed actually that only few car have green - Interstate Batteries and Danica Patrick. It's true I don't know by the heart all the liveries in all easons, but still I've registered somewhat the lack of green.
