Ralph Dale Earnhardt (/ˈɜːrnhɑːrt/; April 29, 1951 - February 18, 2001) was an American professional stock car driver and racing team owner, who raced from 1975 to 2001 in the former NASCAR Winston Cup Series (now called the NASCAR Cup Series), most notably driving the No. 3 Chevrolet for Richard Childress Racing.[3] His aggressive driving style earned him the nicknames "the Intimidator", "the Man in Black" and "Ironhead"; after his son Dale Earnhardt Jr. joined the Cup Series circuit in 1999, Earnhardt was generally known by the retronyms Dale Earnhardt Sr. and Dale Sr. He is regarded as one of the greatest drivers in NASCAR history and named as one of the NASCAR's 50 Greatest Drivers class in 1998.[4][5]
The third child of racing driver Ralph Earnhardt and Martha Earnhardt, he began his career in 1975 in the World 600. Earnhardt won a total of 76 Winston Cup races over the course of his 26-year career, including four Winston 500s (1990, 1994, 1999, and 2000) and the 1998 Daytona 500. Along with his 76 career points wins, he has also won 24 non-points exhibition events, bringing his overall Winston Cup win total to 100, one of only four drivers in NASCAR history to do so. He is the only driver in NASCAR history to score at least one win in four different and consecutive decades (scoring his first career win in 1979, 38 wins in the 1980s, 35 wins in the 1990s, & scoring his final two career wins in 2000). He also earned seven Winston Cup championships, a record held with Richard Petty and Jimmie Johnson.
On February 18, 2001, Earnhardt died in a sudden last-lap crash during the Daytona 500 due to a basilar skull fracture. His death was regarded in the racing industry as being a crucial moment in improving safety in all aspects of car racing, especially NASCAR. He was 49 years old.[2][6] Earnhardt has been inducted into numerous halls of fame, including the NASCAR Hall of Fame inaugural class in 2010.
The 1988 season saw Earnhardt racing with a new sponsor, GM Goodwrench, after Wrangler Jeans dropped its sponsorship in 1987. During this season, he changed the color of his paint scheme from blue and yellow to the signature black in which the No. 3 car was painted for the rest of his life. He won three races in 1988, finishing third in the points standings behind Bill Elliott in first and Rusty Wallace in second. The following year, Earnhardt won five races, but a late spin out at North Wilkesboro arguably cost him the 1989 championship, as Rusty Wallace edged him out for it by 12 points (Earnhardt won the final race, but Wallace finished 15th when needing to finish at least 18th to win). It was his first season for the GM Goodwrench Chevrolet Lumina.

Thanks Teresa

[@ickleshouse]

i always wanted to be able to built model kits to a good standard as a child but "how do i do that", many years have passed and now you (and others) show us how ! Thank you for you time and effort...

[@dc_modelworks]

While it's always good to have a guide like Chris to show you how to do it, the best way to learn is to just dive right in, start building, make mistakes, and have fun.😁

[@charlesmcclure5994]

With all those decals you can't even tell if the body was actually painted, another great build Chris 👍👍

[@superblindeye1]

As a completely blind person, I really enjoy your videos, especially your stock car model ones. Plus, this is Dale Earnhardt, which never hurts a video.

[@jamesdurham9182]

Great video as always, Chris. I hope to see more "RCR" #3 racecars from SalvinosJR. Awesome kits and the decals are 2nd to none. I refuse to buy a new release until I watch your build video for it.

[@robphillips1797]

As a longtime fan, I just want to say THANK YOU for being honest and showing when little mishaps happen, like the chair coming apart. I have all kinds of setbacks when I try even the simplest things. You are incredibly skilled, but you don't hide mistakes. I totally respect you. Thanks for your awesome channel!!

[@maryfiltz800]

I always like seeing the race cars. Thanks for the build.

[@dblducecreations]

Nice work Chris! Looks like a relaxing build! Thank you for all you do. Much appreciated from here!

[@arnoldstrawn1863]

Hey Chris great seeing you doing a Nascar and it turned out good as always, was wondering though if you are gonna build the Wes's Model Car Corner/Salvinos asphalt modified car that you did the box opening on a while back , would love to see it and your technique of building it ,especially since it seems like everyone has so many different ways to assembling it...

[@marc-andrepalange5794]

Nice job 👍hope to see the 1998 daytona 500 winner monte carlo

[@goforitpainting]

Cool as always.

[@MarkMeadows90]

Nice build! I built an original Monogram kit of Dale Sr's 1992 Lumina stock car back in 2020. I even used the original decals. They were a pain to use though. The old adhesive backing on the decals had a milky appearance when dipped in the water. I had to carefully clean off that milky residue with Q Tips and then carefully apply them to the unpainted body. I did the same thing you did with the body of that kit. Left it unpainted. Just needed a couple coats of floor polish. It shined up real nice.

[@matthunger3952]

Mine came in the other day, and Salvino’s sent me two by accident I called them and he told me happy birthday and enjoy! I love their kits I have 25 of ‘‘em haha

[@DavidPayne-j5z]

Always good when Chris posts

[@michaelcooke2559]

Very nice looking build. It is amazing that you don’t have to paint this one. It looks like a great kit. Thanks for sharing.

[@davidgilbert7789]

That mold is in fantastic shape considering that The chassis section was used in several different NASCAR kits with just different bodies and decals over the years. Most likely millions of kits came out of those molds!

[@garyparker2969]

ABSOLUTELY " FANTASTIC " Build Chris. I've Got 2 o Those In My Stash Now. GBA 🤗 Gary.

[@acrowe2512]

We called them "hassocks" (however ya spell it) too (here in upstate NY). I'm amused by your reference to your dad. My dad built models as a kid and started me out on a really cool journey probably unknowingly. We built a Messerschmitt (however ya spell it) together and I was immediatly hooked. His models were balsa wood and paper, flying models. Today, many years later with channels like yours I'm once again enjoying this most rewarding hobby. As you always say, build for you and I agree, that's the secret to enjoying it.

[@MainahTony]

dad has this model from back in day. still in box.

[@tedharris8659]

glad to see this un back again as to your remark about "flash" I do a lot of body work on my stuff I keep a bottle of liquid glue( like what you use) and I put flash and other plastic shavings in it until it becomes kinda like melted plastic I use it on places that regular filler won't work wellI have one bottle I am using and another that I am "brewing" because sometimes if you get too much plastic in it it will harden and be unusable----

[@ronroberts2453]

Awesome build and presentation Chris! 👏

[@jesseortega8598]

The Car Turned out Beautiful Chris. Awesome Job.

[@bluegrasscrazy7307]

I just purchased two original kits today never been opened, can't wait to get started on them..

[@henrychin4290]

Awesome build! My all time favorite NASCAR driver! I have built a few of Dale Sr's car kits from years back! Including a version of this car!! Great job as always!!

[@Coverblue6]

Very nice. I found a bunch of old nascar kits from the 80s here in Calgary at an old hobby shop. 20 bucks each!! Too good to be true. Bought em ! Tim Richmond Folgers, dale e, old dale e, wranglers version, Quaker state green, Richard petty 86 Buick, a couple of others. Bought the Richmond. I’m going back to buy them all!! lol

[@DaDoomguy94.]

I'm currently working on a blue and yellow Monte from the old monogram line. Was looking to see the best ways to get the black lines on my glass. This was awesome and so informative! Also I'm so terribly excited that I can buy a slightly more modern black #3 car.

[@batcavepinball]

Sweet!

[@davidl.miller8168]

Great build! Oh how I miss Earnhardt. Thanks for doing this one on the show

[@darrelkinney9856]

Cool video I’ve got an original Good Wrench with the name on the top of the car. Built back in the day.

[@waynebowen3133]

Thank you 👍

[@THROTTLEPOWER]

🏁3 🏁

[@davidbelcher5096]

That’s one nice build my friend

[@johngligo4049]

Awesome Nascar build!

[@craigwellsjr3968]

I built the #3 a long time ago. It was a fun build.

[@JohnW1711stock]

My 84 Cutlass race car is blacked out as well. Some people mistake mine for a Buick GN. Cool kit.

[@martindaredare]

Really smart build went together really well excellent video

[@jerrykrueger2548]

One decaling tip - use a hot plate to get the water warm. While you start with hot water, it cools off quickly.

[@od1452]

Wow. Nice build. Nice car. I wish they would re- make some of the Monogram/Revell Gassers , Pro Stock and Sportsman cars.. I prefer the 1/24 scale but 1/25 is good too.

[@modelbuildingcorner]

Thanks Chris! Are you gonna get me started on NASCAR models again! I sure do miss when slixxs decals used to have amazing aftermarket NASCAR details for any driver any paint scheme. I remember the original monogram kits on that first tree you showed with the wheels was Chrome. I used to soak that in simple green to get all the Chrome off. I did not realize somebody else was making the kits now. I will have to check into it thanks again LOL

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

Nice!

[@Patmanx1]

I just built the original monogram version of this car 2yrs ago. I liked the decals here better. As you can probably guess I hit a road block when it came to the OG decals because it's just the "3" and the red pin stripe underneath. I had to trace the 3, make a template, and then use that to paint the silver so I could get that gap under the 3 and stripe correct. JRS did a way better job

[@openexhaustmodels5139]

Fantastic mate👍

[@robcates2383]

Dang, Chris that looks awesome! Cant wait to get it, Thats what I thinking, WRANGLER CAR, looking at 3 diecasts, right now!! Great video, Chris!!!!!

[@dwaynewatson4279]

Nice build as usual thanks Chris love the stock models

[@alensley1368]

Another great video. I wish I had your hand painting skills. I'm not good at it and not my favorite part. Thanks for sharing.

[@dalebennett7073]

Nice build as always Chris!! 😊

[@Jangmo_SC]

love this

[@jamestaylor5143]

Nice build, Chris. You're right. The windows DO install from the outside. I built the original issue and am in the process of restoring it. BTW, only 2 kits a week and a life? You can always try 7 kits a week and no life!🤣

[@waynehawkins9090]

No Winston decal. Copyright I guess. Looks good as usual. Have quite a few of the Goodwrench kits still sealed.

[@tomwalker669]

We need the number 8 car also that would look sick side by side

[@jimchapman1524]

I rember watching that race on tv it was a sad day when he died

[@swampcabbage3239]

Sick car....think low riders and mod art may be my deal but damn if i dont like tgem nascars and lemans racers

[@whocares6965]

monogram kits had the clear parts being attached from the outside. the old ford t-birds i think it was the inside

[@shannonlykins1630]

Buy a truck model kit throw a roll bar cage in it plus racing tire's black paint job and number 3 and what do have something really 😎 that's what I'm saying p.s. have fun 😊

[@dwayneedwards7613]

I've been waiting for this one

[@clarenceupton6243]

Sharp 😊❤👍

[@zamoragera13]

I would like to see the monte carlo 3 version 77 model

[@vikingozalazar4589]

Greetings from Argentina, I loved the design! Thanks to you I will start putting together Salvino Jr models! I wanted to ask you about the song you use at the beginning of the video! please

[@jefferyrobertson7520]

I Like Chevrolet Monte Carlo Super Sport Fastback Aero Coupe Totally Amazing Badass Modern Muscle Car 80s

[@DaDoomguy94.]

What can I use in place of future floor wax? Any particular brand or does it matter so long as it's high gloss floor wax?

[@modelbuildingcorner]

Is all of the flashing and the injection problems that you've been experiencing with these kits from jr because it's still the old molds from monogram? In other words is it going to get worse as more kits are made or will it get better?

[@lennylogatto2031]

The monogram nascars were always good kits but I don’t see the originals selling for a lot on the market so I am surprised that savinos would buy the tooling to reissue them and there would be a big market for them.

[@redguysimracing2382]

Stupid question but where did you get those stands you use to clamp down the pieces & body while you paint it?

[@thomasfugate9392]

You sound like the owner of a local hooby shop here in Indiana

[@whocares6965]

if you get a kit that has broken parts, were you stuck with it or do they send you a new piece?

[@hpiguy]

I show what I get and build what I get just like a customer would. I only accept sealed boxed kits so that they can't be cherry picked. Hence why I show broken parts or warped parts when I see them and how I deal with them like everyone else has to. Thanks!

[@danrosenello4847]

That looks great. I wonder if Theresa Earnhardt realizes how ridiculous she’s being with how uncooperative she can be.

[@WilliamRoss-s5o]

What did you use for clear ?

[@bluegrasscrazy7307]

He used pledge revive it floor polish

[@coreyyeggy7764]

What clear coat did you use on this?

[@bluegrasscrazy7307]

He used pledge revive it floor polish

[@bobbyosborne2375]

I bet this guy could do a mean harry carey impression if he wanted too. HEEELLLLO....

[@modelbuildingcorner]

I bet you what they're talking about attach from the inside on the glass means paint the satin black on the inside of the glass not the outside

[@Jake-yx7ct]

The QC on this kit is really lacking. Sorry but paying average 45 bucks a kit equals well finished parts trees and main body parts. Im not a hater just a bit frustrated with the Charger kit ass I couldn't read the parts numbers and some didn't match the diagrams. I will buy this kit as my last and only Dale model lost the hood. Yup it took off for parts unknown land. I like your videos. Keep up the great work.

[@irwinzimmerman9249]

i have one that has dale eranhart on it . 1988 and ihave 2 more 1996 and 2001 all have h es name on them

[@doublenickelbob]

Is it insane to complain about flash and poor moulding, when we spend close to 50 bucks for a kit? Tamiya dont have flash so i'll buy them.

[@keith6872]

Beautiful car, but 1988 was one of Dale's worse years. Bill Elliot won the championship that year.
