mpc 71 gtx upgrade

Recommended Posts

the original mpc kit can be upgraded using the newer AMT Charger kit; but there are some areas that need tweeking first. the windshield from the gtx needs to be trimmed down so that the built chassis platform will fit into the body and the rear bumper needs to be trimmed to clear the frame also. sorry no precise measurements; pretty much eyeball engineering on my part. the old kit platform and engine are pretty much ######; only good for starting a curbside IMHO. i built mine to replicate my uncle's last car as much as possible, considering his was a satellite sebring and not the gtx. the AMT Charger kit has loads of great detail parts in case the Charger itself isn't interesting to you (i don't like the design of it myself) so it is a gold mine for mopar builders looking for alternative parts.
