Thanks, the One did it...it's a darker blue in person, flash changed the color a bit

Had to strip the car down, refinish chassis(wrong color) and relocate bellcranks...got battery mounts done too....processing nicely....batteries (Sanyo)/Novak esc, Tekin receiver up next

Diamond One got it finished!
....just need a drivers man and steering wheel if anyone has those

Love that motor choice

I'm not sure you are open to 3D printed parts, but the driver (scan) and the steering wheel may be available soon on cults3D...

I did model the Steering wheel and the small support... https://i.imgur.com/Lk5lhUq.jpeg I have no certainty on the support itself at this stage : I have 3 Big Bear here, and on all of them, the Support is glued to the dashboard, and I have no way to check it properly without breaking a dashboard......

Now waiting on body posts, and for the Diamond One to finish the body and wheels/tires....remember, he's doing it the way he raced it back in the late 80's

My 2 guesses, in order:

Here’s my guess

I'm so dumb, I thought we were still guessing.
I was going Skoal 33. Anyway, this thing is rad. Can't wait to see it in The King's colors!

That period correct Novak and cells look brilliant.

I forgot about King Richard running those Pontiacs. I always associate him with Mopar, even though he ran just about everything through the years.

Looking forward to seeing this when it is finished

I haven't tried fitting outdrives yet, but I took care of replacing the banged up side plates with some freshly cut Factory Works parts. Thanks again Jeff!
