I saw that car win the Daytona 500 in 73. Was in Campbell grandstand on the fence. It was a my first auto race I ever attended. Think I need to build this.
My favorite stockcar driver growing up. Always loved watching Richard Petty and Buddy Baker dueling it out on the track in their Chargers. Awesome build there, Chris!
This is the third or fourth Petty build I've seen. Keep it up and you'll have King Richard's full fleet. As far as the big decals go, the more you do, the better you get. Great stuff Chris.
And I never get tired of them. I hardly see any model building channels that do NASCAR stuff so that's what I really like about Chris. The first video of his I saw was him building Donnie Allison's 1979 car.
Petty Enterprises obviously had to sign off on the rights for JR Salvinos to make the kit. So someone in his company saw at least the prototype of the model kit before signing off. Whether or not Richard himself saw it may be in question, but this might be something a bit personal for him so I'd like to think he did.
@@joe6096 Salvino JR has a license from Richard Petty Motorsports. This is the seventh Petty car Salvino has produced in the last few years. They have the 79 Olds., 80 Monte Carlo, 81 Buick, 83 Pontiac, 86 Pontiac 2+2, 94 Pontiac and the Charger with plans to do more in the future. salvinosjrmodels.com/ Great kits.
My bro was a Chef for Salvino at his Corona restaurant - Richard used to stop in whenever the team was at Fontana - I have the King's signed lid and other gack from Salvino's. So they know each other. Gentleman, all. 🚙
I LOVE your build! I have 6 of these kits and I unboxed a few. I am ABSOLUTELY BLOWN AWAY by the way this kit test fits together. The fit of the glass is just superb. I give kit 11 out of 10 stars. It is a must have for fans of the 70s cars!
As for the pieces you couldn't identify, those are actually head rests that Petty used in some cars. If you stare at the hexagon in the right orientation, after a time, you'll begin to see Richard Petty's initials (with a stylized "R"). Thought that was a super neat touch! I'm a little late to the show, but found your video very helpful for my Petty Charger build! Agree that the decals are the way to go, saves a lot of time and headaches. Just wanted to mention that if you ever go back to retouch, in my experience, Tamiya fluorescent red is a bit dark and MCW's neon vermillion is almost a perfect match, though it does require a clearcoat. Finally, I went from zero builds the last few years, (I was mainly collecting), to at least ten this year, all due mostly to your videos. They helped me stop worrying about mistakes and just go out and do it "my way"! Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111
When it comes to art;the art world in general, there are no mistakes. Like the late Bob Ross always used to say: "There are no mistakes,just happy little accidents".
There is a saying, something like..."You're always your own worst critic." In any case, Your STP Dodge looks great, imo. You putting it out there because you're happy with it....i can respect that.
Great review of a great model. I need to get back to finishing mine. I got going right away when I got mine, but I’ve had a few delays. Folks who want this kit better get them before they are all gone. This will be a quick sell out.
My favorite all time NASCAR driver... You really did King Richard proud on this one!.. I read somewhere that the 73 Charger was one of his favorite race cars he raced..
It's not just you and those big deckles, they always gave me fits too. :>) Them notwithstanding that's a great build. The interiors on those cars are always so spare but you picked out every detail beautifully. Clearly a labor of love.
Great build! I am building one right now as well. I also have ordered the vermilion so.... we’ll see how that goes on this end. Always love watching you build up something I have to find out what I gotta watch out for with mine. Thanks again!
Beautiful build. So we finally realize that you are as human as the rest of us can’t get certain decals right what a shame. You teach me more in 1 video than all the people I have spoken to about models in the past. Don’t sweat the small stuff, and it’s all small stuff. Stay safe sir
With a more accurate floor pan this would have been a truly great kit ,but it is a good kit as it is and the body is great and the stance on yours is fantastic. Great job and can't wait to get ahold of a couple of those myself.
Great build, really wish one of the model companies these days would give us a stock version of those late third gen Chargers because man are the old kits getting expensive on Ebay. Keep up the great work as always.
Thank you Chris for sharing this build with us. It turned out great. Those large decals intimidate me, but I cant figure a way to mask the body properly with all those curves and angles so that it all lines up for the pinstripes?🤔
The owner of Salvino's, his father was an executive at STP during the Petty years and the entire Salvino family was extremely close to the Petty family. It's a deep personal connection between them so they like to do all the Petty cars.
Very nice work Buddy. You should really try an airbrush it will take your work to a whole new level. Check out the Iwata Eclipse series perfect fo this kind of work. You can still use Lacquer based paints if you like or go the acrylic route as well. NICE work man NICE WORK
I think the MPC kit was the same year. The new one looks like better quality. All I know is I had one helluva time getting one. It took my hobby shop a couple months. They'd say it will be there 3x and it didn't come in 3x. It was already molded in Petty Blue I bought a can of the florescent red or orange whatever and taped off the body and hood. I was going with the current '76 paint scheme. I didn't use any primer and went on a little too heavy and it looked bad. I tried to sand it and messed up something. Luckily there was another kit might have been his Roadrunner but the body was the same and molded in blue also. I got it right the 2nd time and it looked good. In person it looks more orange than red. I think it has something to do with the film used but it's weird how it looks to the naked eye and then on tv or on photos. Like it's two totally different colors. When Ricky Rudd drove the #10 Tide Chevrolet, the front of the car was bright ass orange but on tv it looked much flatter. But Petty's car really stood out. I could easily spot it in turn 9 at Riverside when I was in turn 5 over a mile away!
I would def shoot the red next time. The optional vermillion decals are awesome if you have a half day to work them down nicely but I move way too fast and mucked them up. Def my fault and not the decals.
Another great build! I know showing the paint cans saves you editing time, but would you consider listing the spray paints used? You showing the cans and the colors during the paint process was a feature I find myself missing. TY!
@@hpiguy absolutely I understand Chris I don't mean to be critical. You are a professional. I subscribe to your channel I watch your videos all the time and the techniques and methods that you use in model building have been invaluable in my progress as a ( novice )modeler myself. And your demeanor and enthusiasm when you're doing models comes through in your videos. Thanks again. 👍
Oh people will notice, just wait. If there is one thing peeps on the internet love to do it's point out others mistakes and they are a comin'. Because we know 'THEY' never make mistakes, ever. Thanks for the nice words dude!
I wonder why they didn't just print everything onto the large red decals in the first place. I guess for those who want to paint the red instead? IDK but that's my only "I wish" niggle with this. Looks nice!
How bright are those decals......that STP red always so hard and can look very different depending on lighting. The decals seem bright on salvinos site and would seem like good option. Great job and informative
@@hpiguy thanks...I thought I remembered you saying that in a different video..it looks almost impossible to get the engine in with the headers attached...I know it was on the big 1/16th scale anyway
your spay booth looks pretty mucked up...does it have a fan pulling the fumes? How do you vent it and are you worried about fumes causing an explosion? I'm trying to figure out a booth for my modeling. Any info would be appreciated.
It's used to catch overspray with the fan and filter. I don't worry on fumes as I wear a fume respirator. I just need it to catch all the overspray paint.
Chris, Thank you! I'm fairly new to your channel and have been binging it over the last few months of pandemic. Love your work and review commentary. People should just enjoy the hobby, good advise. One very important quest you may have answered a million times but I have to ask, where on earth to you put all these completed models? Do you live in a warehouse? LOL. Thanks again for the great entertainment and education.
Thanks for coming along! I store most of the models, I give a lot away and some the companies want back for their own displays. If I displayed even half of them I'd for sure need that warehouse. :) Glad you like the FUN theme, that's what I think a hobby should be. :)
1. Clean it with soapy water 2. Use black Rustoleum primer, it will stick even on moist surfaces no problem 3. If nothing else works use bleach or oven degreaser to strip the chrome off
A shot of black primer will usually hold quite well for model purposes. You can always strip it with Super Clean or any of the other common chemicals like bleach, etc.
I tbink petty car is great. Im having a goof gettig lite glue on. . My window . any. Clue on how to get glue off. Clear plastic wi dows. Im a huge fan so any suggestions will help. Thank you & keep up great work. I love the tyrone malone builds. Why cant i get a model roundup book to order from ? Thanks for all the video on painting. Pleaseve mail me anything helpful .
Glue is near impossible to get off glass without buffing and polishing and that only works sometimes. Hence why I use Mod Podge as I show in many videos and speak about, it simply wipes off easily before it dries. Almost no one prints paper catalogs anymore, simply too expensive and products change all the time so they'd have to reprint and re-mail them monthly. Their website is open 24-7. Modelroundup.com
I just started this kit and I’m noticing the part numbers in the instructions don’t match the numbers on the trees, or whatever they are called. And a lot of duplicate parts.
@@hpiguy Hey thanks Hpiguys, I should have been more clear. I meant how long does it last time wise? Does it fade under UV or over time? Keep up the awesome vids!
Hi Chris! I think you're being way too hard on yourself over the decals. Those things are MASSIVE and quite honestly I think the build is extremely attractive. Unless your viewers made an old AMT Romulan Warbird with that giant eagle/hawk decal on the underside, these have to be the biggest one-piece decals I've ever seen. If ya made this again, you'd know what you were up against, so this was a great pathfinder build for anyone who wants to work on this armed with your information. Cheers!
If you think rivet counters are bad in scale modelling try Model railroading lol any scale !! I enjoy your videos and I knew the Brits and others across the pond call it decakulz but even if I was over there I'd ask where is your restroom Not "Where is your Loo?" Lol but I appreciate you appealing to a wider audience !! Now that I know you aren't confused my mind is set at ease lol !! Still hope for our hobby YET!!!

Wow, made in the USA, I might get back into building kits if its made in the USA.
SJRM kits are produced in San Bernardino, CA, and designed in a little barn in Waco TX, welcome back to the hobby Scott!
Great build..I do like the early 70's cars especially the Richard Petty Stockers.
You really made those HUGE decals work...very nicely done!
Looks amazing and yes we're not prefect awesome job

Absolutely BA buddy! I love it! 👍👍🤘✌🏻
Awesome thank you!
@@hpiguy - yeah man you’re mighty welcomed bud!
Glad you built this one Chris because I was born in 1973. Does this kit come with the Vermilion decals or do you have to order them separately ?
They are separate, I made sure to say that a few times but it's easy to miss it.
That’s pretty cool. Do you plan on doing the AMT 1969 Dodge Charger Daytona? The one in the neat metal box.
TOTALLY AWESOME DUDE !!!! GOD BLESS ALL.
Thanks a bunch!
You're Welcome
Imagine standing next to it when they do a flyby doing 200 all that power

Thanks a lot!
while your hand painting all I hear is "Cruel Summer " Acoustic Version
Yeah!

Yes, just like I say I do. Always from the bottom Very tight but they will wiggle in.
@@hpiguy thanks...I thought I remembered you saying that in a different video..it looks almost impossible to get the engine in with the headers attached...I know it was on the big 1/16th scale anyway

Great looking Charger, very well done!

Nice build of a great kit. Keep them coming.
Thanks, will do!
why do you sand the tires? and what are the decals that come in the box?
Looks good Chris but are they going to come out with a petty superbird I certainly hope so I think that would almost complete your NASCAR collection
I have no inside info but we can always hope some day.
Yes Charles, some time next year
your spay booth looks pretty mucked up...does it have a fan pulling the fumes? How do you vent it and are you worried about fumes causing an explosion? I'm trying to figure out a booth for my modeling. Any info would be appreciated.

Looks great! Is the hood not fitting right?
In the final pics you can see it fits fine. I just didn't drop it down all the way for the turntable...
How long do you normally let decals sit in water on average?
Every decal is different.
At least 10 seconds in warm water, some take up to a minute.
Powerslides brand release very quickly.
Will those vermillion decals work for the 1976 petty charger,,,nice build once again
Thanks, if the 76 has the same scheme they may work.
Nice build .......are there any new generation ( Camaro, Mustang ) NASCAR car kits?
As far as I know, no, but there may be some garage guys making them.
SJRM will have a gen 6 Camarillo by fall and a 7 by Daytona ‘22
Looks like the AMT chassis,
It's a knockoff of the old inaccurate MPC chassis from the '70's.
Did you order the orange side decals separate?
Salvinos sent them to try out. They sell them direct.
i would buy this but the two piece chassis is just not stable enough for me.
Once it's glued properly you can't budge it without a saw.
How do you get the paint to stick to the chrome mine always is super delicate and just falls off
1. Clean it with soapy water 2. Use black Rustoleum primer, it will stick even on moist surfaces no problem 3. If nothing else works use bleach or oven degreaser to strip the chrome off
A shot of black primer will usually hold quite well for model purposes.
You can always strip it with Super Clean or any of the other common chemicals like bleach, etc.
