Harry P. Posted February 19, 2010 Author Share Posted February 19, 2010 You guys got it again! Final vote 48-15 REAL. And it is! Real, that is. Next ROM coming MONDAY! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrObsessive Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 OK, the giveaway for me immediately was the roof! I don't see many Johans built these days (they have no vinyl roof detail), and the Monogram ones I do see built don't have the correct C pillar shape to me (too narrow). One COULD take the Johan and put a convincing vinyl roof covering on it, but there were some other details that gave it away-------the clarity of the glass, quarter window chrome strip, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stang67 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I'mmmmmmmm back!! Yup! Bolt holes and the roof did it for me. My cousin had one years ago, like to race it but the bolts had to tighten on the wing sometimes. Good one Harry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was guessing, that would have been the tipoff for me... nobody ever puts that detail on the model... but I figured some of you might think it was a big bucks diecast.

69*Goat Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 The Giveaway for me was the "TEXAS" license plate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger U Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 These Real or Model contests are really good for pointing out all the small details that can be added to our models for more realism. Thank you for this continuing challenge Harry. Also, it's fun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gbdolfans Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 I knew this one was real!!!! The giveaway to me was the bolt holes in the wing supports as was mentioned before.They were allen screws,used to adjust the angle of the wing. The biggest detail that gave it away to me is a small plate on each side at the lower corner of the rear window.I have never seen this on any model.There are two of them,one on each side, running from the window toward the wing supports.BTW-in the Plymouth Division, it was called a "horizontal stabilizer".I don't know about the Dodge Division. A great book to look for if you like these cars is "Supercars-the story of the Dodge Charger Daytona and Plymouth Superbird, by Frank Moriarty.Published by Howell Press. As I stated earlier,I was an original owner of an Orange Bird with a 440-6Barrel. The Six-Pack name was the same thing in Dodge.
