caine440 Posted June 26, 2012 Share Posted June 26, 2012 (edited) While I am waiting on some decals to finish my 71 Rod Shop Charger I started playing around with this kit. I have been meaning to build this one for a long time, I guess the fact that it is a common kit which has been done to death put it on the back burner for a few years. So here is what I have so far. It is just mocked up right now and has a long way to go. Thanks for looking! Edited July 4, 2012 by caine440 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbowser Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 That looks really good! Dual plug wires must have been a pain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320wayne Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Looks good Roger. You have the same mentality on this as I do. I have all the makings for this car but since it has been done so many times I have never gotten around to doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Pol Posted June 27, 2012 Share Posted June 27, 2012 Nice job so far Rodger what did u use for the gauges and wire looms? Keep up the good work. John Pol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caine440 Posted June 28, 2012 Author Share Posted June 28, 2012 Thanks everyone. John the gauges are just decals from a really cool decal sheet from Mike's Scale Speed shop. The wire looms are just some cheap crimp beads from hobby lobby, I ran out of Photo Etched looms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mysterj1 Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Nice build. Were those rims stock w/ that kit? Very nice realism, it sure looks to scale. Love that raked stance, cool hot rod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
