[About the actual vehicle]
――Richard Petty is a popular driver who has won the NASCAR series of stock car racing, one of the most popular motor sports in the United States, and has won the championship seven times in history and continues to attract many fans.
――When you started your racing career at the age of 21 in July 1958, you won the Rookie of the Year in 1959 the following year.
――In 1960, he gained 3 wins as early as 2nd in the ranking, and after that he achieved 200 wins in his career, recorded 513 consecutive races from 1971 to 1989, and retired in 1992. He has a brilliant race career, having raced in a total of 1,185 races, and is still very popular even after he retired.
――Such `King` Richard Petty won the big event Daytona 500 seven times in the opening game of NASCAR, but in 1973 he drove the charger and won the fourth victory.
[About the model]
-The model is a 1/16 scale model that reproduces Richard Petty's favorite car, the charger of number 43, which won the Daytona 500 in 1973, and is a big scale model with a total length of about 32 cm.
――The chassis, suspension, cockpit, engine, and other details are precisely reproduced, and the kit, which is fully responsive, is full of fun unique to a large model.
――The chassis is finished by assembling the front firewall, the rear bulkhead, the pipe frame around the engine, the cockpit roll cage, etc. on the floor panel of the integrated parts.
--The front torsion bar and rear leaf spring suspension are set there. The height of the rear leaf spring can be adjusted by selecting the mounting position.
-The engine reproduces the V8 cylinder in detail up to various accessories.
--Only the right bank of the engine has transparent parts set on the valve cover parts.
-Since the rocker arm parts are reproduced inside, I am looking forward to choosing transparent parts and seeing them.
--In addition, cords, wiring, piping, oil lines, etc. are reproduced with pipes and cords of several thicknesses.
――Since the bonnet is removable even after completion, you can enjoy the finish of the mechanical engine room.
-The markings unique to stock cars and, of course, the trademark number 43 of [King] Petty have also been reproduced with large slide marks.
