`69 Talladega.

Finished this one last week. Monogram kit, mostly OOB. Lowered the front to cure the nosebleed stance, wired the engine. Paint is Testors Mythical Maroon One Coat Lacquer, with various Tamiya acrylics for details. Foil by Cadbury.

Re: `69 Talladega.

Looks good, i like the brandy and black color colmbo.

They were not too long in 1:1 untill ford added another foot to the front overhang for aerodynamics to compete against the Dodge Daytonas on the superspeedways in NASCAR. I always liked the nose of the regular Torino GT beter myself.
