Nice work! Always liked that nice, clean look to the Petty Charger built for Buddy. I'll ask you a question that I'm asking everyone. Do you have any idea why did PE chose #11 for Buddy's car in 71 and 72 vs. something in the 40s as they did with all other team cars from the late 50s forward? Guessing Chrysler may have made the decision, but I've never got even the whiff of a reasonable answer other than "it was available". So I'll continue to ask. :-)
