1974 STP Charger driven by Richard Petty (1/25) (si)
This kit is sealed inside complete and perfect. It's only crime was being opened for inspection as many of us do with new kits. These came in a couple of mold colors and this one is the opaque white which is easiest to paint. The instructions are in tact and the decal is perfect. This kit will not last long. Compare at $60.00.
1974 was one of seven Championship Years for the King, Richard Petty. When asked about a favorite car, Richard will not hesitate in saying is was the old # 43 Charger that he raced in 1974 screaming down victory lane again and again that year. Starting the 1974 Season off with a big block V-8, Petty's brother Maurice would have to overhaul the trusty Charger to accommodate the new carburetor and maximum displacement regulations adopted by NASCAR earlier that year. The retooled Charger powered by a new 340 cid small block engine would prove to be nearly unstoppable for the balance of the year. Fit for a King!
