Marvin all tuned

Postby HomeRacingWorld » Wed Feb 27, 2013 7:59 pm

Just finished a tune up on this old ride

Image

Usual mods, PG Tires and SCC 15x8's on the rear.

Runs good! Nice to tune on these again.

Nice! Those SCC wheels have been a heaven send. They are great looking and they're round. I put some 15X10's on the rear of my Petty '67 Plymouth. They're snug as a bug in a rug, but they fit. I have a Marvin somewhere, and the FireBall too. :)

Ahh Harry, yer killin' me here! You do know that Aurora had an HO scale T-Jet '63 Galaxie body back in the day, right? And recently, Dash Motorsports repopped a bunch of 'em, so, bein' a Ford guy, I grabbed a bagful for myself. Now ya show me another cool vintage paint scheme I'm gonna have to try and replicate!
The model is beautiful, very nice work. Love those Galaxies!

Enjoy... Ernie

This is my favorite Monogram NASCAR, and I'm glad to hear that Marvin will now be a regular entrant of your oval.

I've got to ask, is there a link anywhere that I go to read the history behind this car? I don't know what or who Tiny Lund is, but I get the feeling that in addition to Panch, AJ Foyt and Dan Guenery also drove this car- or at least drove for the same team over the years. Am I right?
