I know it's a drag racer, but I'm still hoping to do a Sox & Martin Cuda body or use a Challenger. Maybe I'll finally get that done this winter. It's one of the iconic vintage drag cars. Would look good on a road course too.

That would be a good scheme on any race car. You can't go wrong with red, white and blue.... : )

Do a Google search for the Mopar Missile, another very cool paint scheme.

Here's a few bodies I've painted up (with the help of Carl Seils stickers) for VTA racing in Shanghai, China.

For pics I used white out or white paint. To look good through racing I used silver sharpie. But thats just for the raised HPI letters. To actually make it say goodyear I believe there are decals you can buy.
