‘70 Dodge Super Bee

Recommended Posts

This is the latest re-release by Round 2. Gotta say, it is a nicely done kit. The chrome and decals are really good and the packaging was excellent.

I went with a retro-tech theme, hence the shaved door handles, drip rails and side marker lights. I also used the kit’s twin hood scoops to make the dummy rear brake vents functional and added a hood scoop. I also added a rear wing too. The colour is Testor’s One Coat Lime Ice with same brand clear – it went on a bit strange, but polishes up real nice.

The chassis has been mini-tubbed at the rear and runs a nine inch with coil overs. The wheels are from a Revell ‘California Wheels’ ’67 Chevelle with rear tyres from the AMT Wagon Rod kit and hand drilled rotors. The engine is the kit Hemi with common-rail fuel injection on a modified cross-ram manifold and the interior has a set of race seats with harnesses and a sports steering wheel.

Thanks for all the nice words guys.

Nice build all around. One coat testors ? Did you put a clear on afterwards ? Polish ? Looks great !!

Yep. Testors 'wet look' clear and polished out with cutters and Meguiar's Scratch-x. It's great stuff.
