In the Milwaukee area, we have a costume company called Halloween Express. At this time of year, their stores start popping up all over. Most of us have an abundance of stock car kits laying around, so I thought that I would combine the two, and see what happens. I started with a Valvoline Taurus kit and sprayed most of the parts grey. The body was given a coat of white.  |

Don, Your gonna take a stock car, and make it have the "Halloween Express" on it, with a number of "666"  ?? OR "6" on one door, "6' on the roof, and then "6" on the opposite door? To equal "666" Thats ----^ My guess! |

I have to say I once was a little into Nascar, BUT that was back in the early 90's to the death of Dale Earnhardt Sr....Once he was gone, that was the end for me, (I wasn't a "#3" fan, I WAS a "43" fan, up to the point that Richard Petty stopped driving...(I don't even know WHO drives his number anymore!!!!) BUT Richard was King, and was my driver was a Mopar man to say the least, BUT I got into Dale Earnhardt Sr a bit too, BUT he didn't drive a Mopar, he was just a good driver!!!!
Even being into Nascar, I have NEVER owned a stock car model, not once! I got "parts" valve covers and heads to Chebby, BUT thats all I have....
So anyway Don, Who's yer driver? Vampiress?
Speaking of, I got to say Danica Patrick, WHOA!

Some of you guys have some strange ideas. However, the theme is gohstly, and not satanic. Your right Danica is a spooky driver. Been working o the chassis. Pretty standard stuff.    Working on paint and decals. |

That looks great. Don't forget to post it in the completed MOTM section.
I'm curious on the graphics. I see your base layer of green and red. Did you mask the letters or are the stickers and then you brushed over them. I see the edges for each but not sure how you finished it off. Great job!

Where do I find the completed MOM section?
This was an experient in making home made decals. My printer does not do da-glow colors, so I painted the background areas with da-glow paint and then applied transparent home made decals over the painted areas. The decals themselves have a black background with white lettering. Since an ink-jet can not print white, the white areas come out clear, and let the background colors show through.

Looks great though.
