90's Lumina?

Thanks

Looks like a Monogram Snaptite Lumina body to me.

Probably a Lumina, but GM also ran similar looking Buick & Olds bodies. With NASCAR sculpturing, they often looked alike.

Yes this looks like a nascar Lumina.
Although most of the nascar makes started to look very similar except for the front grill and side opera glass

Thanks for the all the reply guys. After doing a google search for 1/32 Monogram Snap-Tite, I'm pretty sure that it was the Goodwrench car. I had no idea that these kits existed in 1/32

Thanks again
Randy

Yes Lumina for sure. But, both Monogram and Amt/Ertl produced the Nascar Lumina in 1/32 scale. I may have both in the dungeon bought with intentions of removing the nose and roof sections from one in an attempt to recreate the 1:1 Lumina late model I raced during '92 & '93 race seasons.

Spent 45min with a SCX Impala chssis

And that's the beauty of these kits. Both the AMT Snapfast and Monogram Snaptite kits, with some work, fit the SCX and Scalextric Impala and inline Ford Taurus chassis'. The big difference with the 2 brands is that Monogram use peel and stick decals and AMT use waterslide. I've finished an AMT Lumina and Tbird using the decals provided.
