Any chance of the new McAllister #275 200mm Camaro becoming legal?

Likely zero, since its not 'period' great body tho! Look at that shovel nose, could scoop a guy from the apex to the wall without any problems, and Garys bodies are usually think as bricks so I'm sure it would take one hell of a beatin!

Hey guys I want to thank every one who voted for my picture on Facebook. It turns out I am one of three finalist so if you are on Facebook I need your support once again. Mine is the red Mustang. (See picture above)

What if you could buy AMP Energy Drink in the late 60's...

I didn't paint this body, but i designed and cut the vinyl masks. Turned out pretty good, i'd say.

Kudos to woodys3b for laying that paint.

I know the McAllister IROC Camaro body isn't technically VTA legal, but locally I can run it. Here's my new scheme:

I saw the decals on ebay and just had to try out the scheme...
