Looking for reference material on Winston Cup 1991 Olds
Hopefully I don't sound too ignorant, but I am trying to build a NASCAR for the first time and looking for a decent reference material.
I see many beautiful NASCAR models here, and they definitely help learning how to detail one, but what I am looking for is rather old and not quite popular... I am trying to build an AMT Kodak Film Olds kit, which I believe raced in 1991. I searched web and some books on Amazon, but didn't find anything useful yet... I don't mind getting a book if it has many pictures of interior and the engine. At any rate, I hope some of your NASCAR masters can give a hint as to where would I should start looking. Without extensive NASCAR knowledge, only thing I can turn to is a good reference material and I would like to build my first race car with at least correct details if not complete... Thanks!

Re: Looking for reference material on Winston Cup 1991 Olds
IIRC '92 was the last year that Olds was in Nascar and I think Harry Gant was one of the last real contenders to field them competativly? Since the early 80's, Nascar Olds bodied cars were running Chevy motors (I'm pretty certain of that but anyone please correct me..). With their common GM heritage, engine details would be the similar to a Lumina or late 80's Monte Carlo.
I haven't found much myself photowise but here's a front end shot. If I come up with anything else, I'll post it.. In the interim, HTH? http://www.pbase.com/noyphoto/image/83300614

Re: Looking for reference material on Winston Cup 1991 Olds
Thank you guys! It gives me some ideas to start. I suppose I should look into GM engines used in 1991 to get a decent idea as to how I should detail!
Finding "Olds" wasn't easy, but I think looking for Lumina might give me a better result in searching! Thank you again for your advice!
