freakshow12 Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 (edited) Hey folks, had a few of these sitting here and decided to build what I would have ordered in 70. I sanded down the wheel wells a bit and prepped some parts. Paint is tamiya met blue it will have white no console interior, white stripe, body color bumpers, rocker trim and steelies. What do you think? Pics once I get home Edited July 19, 2014 by freakshow12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freakshow12 Posted June 2, 2014 Author Share Posted June 2, 2014 Thanks guys. Clear is all done. Rest will be done with elbow grease lol. Steel wheels turned out good and I used different tires. Now I need the right hubcaps. Thought the 68 charger ones would work but they are different : ( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonekrosha Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The older dog dishes do not have the "cooling Holes" like the later 70's police car had. I'll find a pic in a few... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTalmage Posted June 2, 2014 Share Posted June 2, 2014 The dog dish caps from Revell's '70 RoadRunner should work. I used them on another model at one time as well. Should give you that look you're going for. http://www.amazon.com/Revell-Monogram-Plymouth-Road-Runner/dp/B00643LK10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
