Mopar - D Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 (edited) This is a resin body I picked up on eBay that also included a Revell 69 Charger as a donor. I'm going with Hemi orange and a black interior. I've started trimming the chassis to fit and going with the Revell interior tub but using the 70 resin seats. I cut out the rear resin seat and also the front fender inter panels. Your comments and recommendations are always welcome.

Mopar - D Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Some updates from today. Started work on the engine, detailed the wheels and more work on the body the resin body had a couple air bubbles that needed to be fixed.

Mopar - D Posted July 11, 2014 Author Share Posted July 11, 2014 Worked on getting the body ready for the 2nd coat and did another trial fit to see how it's going to look. While I'm waiting for the Modelhaus bumpers to arrive I'm working on the existing bumper to see what I can do with it to make it fit and add chrome to it. Here's today's progress pictures.
