Since the temps here have been in the single digits the last few days, it has given me even more excuses to stay inside and work on/finish my new cars. These are the last 3 (outside of the boys Scout cars) that I had to finish up. I promise, I won't be bugging you guys with anymore pictures for awhile ;D !! Lucky 13

Sharp Lucky! I'm still 10 years behind you on the airbrush.
What Type of stencil did you use for the skulls?
You are starting to crank these cars out in quanity like I did last year. 36, 45, 67 cars for Bluegrass '09?

Thanks guys !! Sapp, I just used the Krylon Crystal Clear on these cars. I need to look into better clear, but so far, I haven't ?? I put 2-3 coats of clear on them, the one good thing about the Krylon Clear is that it dries in 10 minutes or less so putting multiple coats on in a short time is easy. I did pick up some of the Dupli-Color lacquer clear to try on my next build.
Beak, those stencils came from DerbyDoc.com. The last order I placed I asked Tory to send me a variety of stencils and they were in the box when it arrived. I'm not sure if they are ones he sells or just some he had sitting around ?

OK, I know, I promised no more pictures.....I lied !! Since the kids have had a very long weekend (2 snow days and MLK Day), we decided it was a perfect weekend to get the boys Scout cars finished. This finished up all our current pinewood derby projects, now I'm a little bored. I guess the new Bluegrass Nationals website will be my next project !! Thanks again for the help with the "Chewbacca" decal Dapine !! Lucky 13
