This is the Big John Mazmanian kit. I bought it from a modeler from Louisiana who endured a flood caused by a hurricane a couple of years ago. The box and decals were destroyed but the plastic was all ok and the instructions were dried out. So instead of building the John Mazmanian replica I built it differently. So I painted it Tamiya Yellow with a black interior. Instead of using the red window glass I cut some acetate and used it. I added a Mad pre-wired distributor with yellow wire and it has been done for a few months now without any decals. I looked for some Mom and Pop decals at Slixx but didn't like any of them. So it sat.
Then while building the Super Nova, the 69 Chevy Nova kit, I had the idea that I could combine the "Super" decal with the "Hemi" decal from the 68 Dodge Dart kit and create the "Super Hemi" for the door panels. Then I added a few sponsor decals, the Cherry Bomb just for fun, and now it is done before the end of the year! Happy New Year everyone!
