That's insane like literally this is the most true to scale accurate model of a cup car from that era I have ever seen. He didn't miss a single part on it if it was in 1-1 scale you couldn't tell the difference I build and drive latemodels have been my whole life and he literally built a replica 1/24 scale cup car to the exact details it's insane and all the scratch built stuff is so accurate wow man wow and the wires for gauges and the ignition tray I call it with the two boxes and coil and fire bottle wow just WOW. You missed one small thing and thats starting it up lmao. No nascar die cast collector in the world has a car this detailed or display only way to get one is build it your self that is beautiful and I can't imagine what your cases and display room looks like. My finished builds are a total of 4 in the last year I spent building models. I got one I been working on for 6 months and it's detailed and now I'm gonna take longer on it cause I wanna build it like you did this amount of detail but I know I will get like break lines and radiator lines and then say screw it to finish the model lol

I got the 000-120 threaded rod from “small parts.com”. I don’t think they are around now. You can still find it online but it is pricey! Several guys are using guitar string. I’m going to be looking at that myself. As for drilling out the wheels. I picked up an arrowhead aluminum template a number of years ago. Shapeways 3-D printing makes some awesome pre-drilled 1/24 scale nascar wheels from that era. Have an awesome week!!
