Pioneer NASCAR Charger

[TsgtRet]

This started out as the "Lady Luck" charger. Stripped and painted with Krylon Fusion, home made decals, R-M interior and wheels, Tiny Motors rear tires, stock Pioneer running gear (for now). My photography skills lack a certain something...this looks much better in person. (The sponsor was real, the first place the car business I worked after I retired from the Air Force).

Lookin' good, Sarge!

I sense a couple builds coming. I know a fella building a new oval that NEEDS more Mopars to trade paint.

Silly really. I should have threw some SCC Steelys on one of these by now.

Thanks folks. This is the first project I've tried in a while, what with working 50+ a week, and I'm pretty happy with it. The only problem I had was when the Future tried to "float" one of the rear deck lid pins (quick work with safety pin saved it). One note: the R-M interior is a bit narrower than the Pioneer (could use some sheet stock on both sides) and I had to shorten "King Richard's" throne and roll bar a bit.

Harry, once I get chance to try this on the big local track I may swap the rears for some SCC steelies, my "test and tune track" here at home doesn't have a long enough straight to really open it up.

Great looking car - much nicer than the fake Scalextric one coming out... ;)

That does look pretty cool. I like the Pioneer sponsorship on the front fender. JIm
