Dr. Noise Paints - New 1992 High Resolution Carset Progress

[Dr. Noise]

Car number 3 for James Hylton is good to go. Technically, so is car number 4, but I didn't take a photo of it. They're basically identical, except one has a white nose & white spoiler. The one in the photo is the Pocono car. The other is the Michigan car. There is one or possibly 2 minor sponsors that appear in the yellow behind the rear tire, but they're local and impossible to read. So, that space is left blank and if a photo appears over the course of the build of the set shows up, I'll add em. I think this is only the 2nd car I've had to do that with, so we got a good track record going on getting everything.

This is a somewhat loose structuring of the final car before I can do literally anything other than James Hylton cars. I believe I am going to use 1992 contigs on this car, rather than the 1991 hold-outs they left on the car. Mostly to keep everything uniform and not confusing. Almost nobody will be familiar with this particular scheme, but annoying folks will see the 1991 decals on it and think the car is in the wrong carset. So, I'd like to avoid those useless contacts. Heh.

As for he Watkins Glen version, it also rocks 1991 contigs. I'm surprised they let him race with them and not give him a new pack to update it before race day. Whatever. I'm not making that car. For one main reason, beyond the fact that we'd have to guess the hood, trunk, and tail.

The decals are awful! If I released a carset with a car that had decals overlapping its numbers, someone would think I was drunk when I made it! Rather than Hylton's die cutter was drunk when it sized that crap. Forget it. lol.

Good call Bill Looks like a real bad rush job to slap those logos on. Not to mention who found that Number? One for the history books.

Interestingly enough Hyltons 1992 entry managed to get a diecast produced. Of course this being the 90's and the fact it is a diecast means accuracy isn't the best, but the fact this team had one made at all is impressive in and of itself.

 

[Dr. Noise]

Alright, 5th of the James Hylton cars is completed. This is as close as I'm going to get this car. If I don't move on this carset won't be done until 2040. Heh. Time to move onto a couple 49 car schemes.

All right so... Number 49, it's Stanley Smith time!

Talladega version of the car at this link: https://thracingphotos.smugmug.com/NASCAR/NASCAR-1992/i-sSnsN3Q






Luckily for us the main paintscheme has been (mostly) consistent with Ameritron Batteries as a main sponsor


This is the version of the Daytona 500 apparently (credits to Lee Johnson)

About the first blurry pic, where the yellow logos don't have a proper quality, I managed to find out the sponsor. Kresto Hand Cleaner, appeared during the 1993 season in this paintscheme.

Stanley's car has 2 decals in 3 different locations on this car. These 2 decals appear on most every version of the car from that year. Whatever is on the B pillar seems to be identical to what can be seen at the jack post. I have no idea what it is, though.

The second is what looks to be an 'RDL' logo on the back in between the Fram sticker and the FMC sticker.

Anyone have any ideas on either of these?

B pillar looks like sundrop

 

[Dr. Noise]

Jackpot. A former sprint car driver was able to point me in the right direction and I got it drawn up. A lot of work for a decal that'll be so small it probably won't even be readable. So, the tradition. lol

 

[Dr. Noise]

Now that I've spent some time with this scheme, it sure was a pretty car. Few things left to do.

Stanley Smith completed, Part 1! I did notice that the white paint scheme used at Daytona was also used in at least 1 other race, based off photos I came across. I had initially thought that scheme only ran at Daytona.

@Dr. Noise What was the small PDL logo?

@Dr. Noise What was the small PDL logo?

No idea. And now everyone else knows I didn't figure it out! Lol.

There's a PDL cleaning product with a similar logo. So I just used their wording below the PDL and matched the rest of the decal to what we see in the photo. Since the smaller words shrunk far beyond what can be read, figured that would do in case I was wrong.

PDL is Pulsed Dye Laser. Some of my 1990 BGN / BGNN cars had it.

Hell yeah. Thanks for clearing that one up! I will update the scheme right away and need to mark your name down for credit.

 

[Dr. Noise]

Stanley Smith, Part 2 complete! This is as the car appeared for Speedweeks at Daytona.

Your kickiing Ass Dr! Awesome job!

 

[Rob D.]

Both Stanley Smith cars are great.. Fantastic job as usual!
