Holman Moody & Stroppe prepped 69 Cammer Mustang Match racer! This build is part of the East coast Ford Factory Drag team for 69 and 70. It took custom made decals and a lot of fabrication to get this beast right. Not to mention 6 yrs of toil at the bench to complete the whole team. Enjoy!!!
And heres one of the whole ensamble just for grins! Sorry couldn't resist!

I'll throw my hat in the ring with this one. Being a Revell Street Demons fan I wanted to revisit a build that I completed as a kid and put a spin on it. I started out with these two kits and a Pro Street vision. I did end up using a few parts from the old Revell release such as decals (for patterns) , rear license plate and a couple of small items here and there. The Street Demons paint scheme on a Pro Street car was what I was after.
I've always had an eye for Revell's "Street Demons" series back in 1983 but I don't really care for the gasser look that a few of 'em had...……..this one in particular. In staying with the theme I set out to change things up a little bit in the way of a slight color change up, stance, powertrain and interior.
Additionally, Just about every single Willy's build I seen has a blower sticking out of the hood and I wanted to do something different. I've always been a BIG fan of the Dodge A990 platform and so......I went for it.
Powertrain: Super Stock 426 Hemi came from the Revell 1968 Hemi Dart kit with upgrades to the ignition, fuel and throttle linkage systems.
Wheels: From Future Attractions. I had my machine shop at work cut the rear wheels in half due to the fact that they were just too dang wide to use with the tires I had.
Aftermarket Items: Too many to list.
Paint: Testors Icy Blue Lacquer, Testors White Lightning Lacquer and Testors Wet Look Clear all decanted and shot through an airbrush.
Decals: Speedway Decals
