This is a model from a company called K&K.
I sent it to a local man who changed it to this:

Awesome! I know a model guy who took a regular old plastic model kit of a Dale Earnhardt car, and transformed it into an award winning replica of the car after rolling multiple times at Talladega. Every wrinkle, scrape, dent, torn piece of sheet metal was replicated. Serious skills involved. _________________ sent from a phone using poor grammar and spelling |

the rust on the front fender looks so real. you can see the pitting!
whomever did this has some serious skills.
are there a pair of seats with rusted frames to the right and behind the model? |
