    1972 chrysler vh valiant regal hardtop

    in Model Cars

    Posted

    i made the body in my slicer program for my 3d printer using andrey bezrodny's 72 road runner and his 70 valiant's hood and grille and his 69 chargers front and back bumper as well as various other parts from his various 3d printable kits

    i have i printed the body and interior parts and rims and tires in mid october and painted it the last week of october and built it last week this is one of the last bodies i printed  as my print screen started to get dead spots  due to one dead spor the grille and front bumper got a chunk of it that did not print so i had to use putty to remake it the section that did not print the bumper turned out better then the grille since i had no way to recreate the thin super tight together horizontal slats of the grille 
    i also printed a 8track player with a 8 track in it and mounted on the dash were the radio would be and the chassis and wheel backs and metal axels came from my parts boxes
    i painted the body rust oleum 2x gloss real orange
    i painted the interior parts rust oleum 2x gloss brown to look like vinyl
    i painted the tires and chassis rust oleum 2x flat black primer
    i painted the rims rust oleum bright coat metallic aluminum
    i painted the bumpers and head lights and exterior and interior trim with a apple barrel metallic silver ultra fine tip acrylic pain pen
    i painted the tail lights and rear indicator lights apple barrel gloss real red and gloss tangelo acrylic paints using a dead ultra fine tip sharpie
    i also found a few new song cover maker on youtube this one also does the covers in a different genre from what the original song was which this maker seems to like to turn country or bubblegum pop or hip hop/rap songs into rock or pop rock or punk rock songs this maker also turned 3 different sea shanties into rock songs
    i have one of the covers they make playing in the backround of this video  the original version was a sea shanty but now is a rock song

    The 4 door Falcons the police used were special order, basically 351 GT’s in a plain appearance. Surviving examples are highly sought after on the classic car market here in Australia.

    i have seen a photo of a still in good condition all white 72 vh valiant sedan with a single blue gumball light mounted in the center of the roof

    i know one or two former police falcon sedans and one former taxi falcon sedan were used as the 3 main force patrol falcon sedans in the first mad max movie

    Oh, and by the way Michelle, that is a nice looking XB Falcon patrol car. They did use 4 door versions, but I reckon, secretly they would have loved to be driving a hardtop!👍🏻

    thank you i knew they used the falcon and valiant and kingswood/monaro sedans as normal police cars  and they also used the falcon and valiant and statesman panel vans both to transport prisoners and to carry extra policemen if they needed them

    That all sounds great but the mini moke may be a bit wrong for a police vehicle. 

    well with how tasmainia is alot more trees few long highways less speeders a mini moke would be perfect for a highway patrol vehicle since there is far more shade and coverage from the sun and i would think a mini moke could handle a bit more of the off road then a 2 door car could
