    AMT Cobra is out right now.  Older issues aren't hard to find, nor expensive.  I picked up a Modern Classics early Seventies issue a couple of months ago for seven bucks, complete and unbuilt.

    trying to find one at walmart  is impossible  or find one on amazon for a decent price is not easy  
      and when i am low on funds like i am currently and will be next month also  i tend to prefer doing trades cause it means i only have to pay under 10 to send out my end of the trade cause i tend to use media mail option when i am very low on cash i know it is a little dishonest to claim what i am sending is either a bunch of dvds or books or cds so i can get the cheapest option but i only do it when i am low on money or i know it is going to be closer to 20 dollars to send and it's the post office which is government run and funded i really do not feel bad with that little white lie cause the federal gov can afford the small loss

    Another masterpiece that sure is a nice metallic red

    thank you i did not have actual metallic dark red spray paint that would be similar to dark metallic red paint the concept car was done in  and could not find a can at walmart so i just used a can of a gloss dark red spray paint and that color shift paint to give it that metallic look

    this is version 2.0 of this model i made in my slicer program for my resin printer
    i used andrey bezrodny's 2020 dodge charger srt kit and his 2022 dodge charger ev kit
    plus a set for free twin exhaust tips and a free tuner nose and a 2005-2010 charger dash i need to find a different front end piece to use for version 3 
    i scratch built the grille splitter and the tires and pistol grip shifter came from my parts boxes
    i painted the body a base coat of rust oleum 2x gloss colonial red and a top coat of rust oleum color shift iridescent shimmer
    i painted the chassis rust oleum 2x flat black primer i also will need to resize that for version 3 as it is a bit to short and i had to break it in two and glue it to the bottom of the interior pan to get it to line up with wheel well openings of the body 
    i painted the rims rust oleum bright coat metallic aluminum
    i brush painted the interior 4 different colours of acrylic paint apple barrel matte flag red, apple barrel matte black, apple barrel gloss real red and apple barrel matte pavement
    i brush painted the side window trim and tail light panel and around the exhaust tips and the grille apple barrel matte black
    i painted the grille dodge logo and the r/t badges and the charger name and headlight buckets and front fog lights and the exhaust tips and interior trim and mirror faces with a apple barrel metallic silver ultra fine tip acrylic paint pen
    i painted the tail lights apple barrel gloss hot rod red with a dead ultra fine tip sharpie
    i painted the rear indicator lights apple barrel gloss tangelo with a dead ultra fine tip sharpie
    i painted the tri gauge cluster apple barrel gloss white with a dead ultra fine tip sharpie
    i did the gauge needles and digital lower screen with a ultra fine tip red sharpie
    i printed this in mid october just before my elegoo saturn 3 ultra resin printer broke due to the deceptive practices of the company both in the length of time the print screen was supose to last and how long thee warrenty was for and what it would cover and for their offical screen replacement video failing to let people know 3 of the clip style plugs attached to the mother board were hot glued in and the video shows the person just un clipping the plugs no problem it lead to my motherboard snapping  and then to find out that there was no reason to unclip them  as they have nothing to do with replacing the print screen and painted the body and chassis and rims the first week of november and brush   painted the interior  as well as the tail lights andother details the second week of november and built it last week 
    oh and i got the printer they first week of july and the print screen started to die with dead spots the second week of october i bought the new print screen the first week of november and never got a chance to even install it cause the mother board snapped before i even got to that step so now i have to get a new resin printer in december
