Greetings fellow weirdos!
I have come from the depths of the internet with one goal in mind, after seeing an ad for this beauty of a vehicle.
The Equus Bass in my opinion is the perfect modern muscle car. With interior up to spec with all modern vehicles, it retains the quintessential look of a real pure 60's muscle car. Resembling, in my mind, a combination of a Plymouth GTX and a '67 Fastback. My goal and plan is to kit bash a GTX, and a fastback with the interior of a Camaro. I need to make this, I need I need I need I want.
My first steps are... well actually buying the kits which I cannot do at this moment. However! I call upon you all to ask if any of you guys have donor bodies of fastbacks or front grills of gtx's out there.
First off, I will need to re sculpt the GTX front grill and chin to fit the more angular shape. I have no clue how, but I will figure it out. Also the GTX has 4 headlight, this only has 2 plus the fog lights underneath. Maybe the GTX isn't the best choice, but at this moment it is as close as I can get in my mind. The fastback body needs only minor adjustment, I would need to fill where the side vents are but otherwise I am going to leave it well enough alone. I would need the 770 Decals too. The interior will be just the Camaro interior from the 2017 Fiftieth anniversary Camaro. -
Thank you

Primed!
Airbrushing in a 1 bedroom apt. is not fun...
For some reason the colour looks so much more orange on camera. It is actually quite a darker red.
Challenger vs Challenger (1970)
Wheels are black. Not sure what to do with them right now, but I have to do all the black trim and details first before I do anything else with decals and whatnot. -
A christmas gift arrived today, sent by Mustang. He sent me a new bumper for the 'stang, which I promptly completed.
Despite the issues with the fit on the nose, I thoroughly enjoy this kit. I HAVE to do another one with the Eleanor custom front clip.

Not a single thing, other than branding (i.e., box art and labelling).
5 hours ago, Steamboat said:They even have the same issue number, which is kind of strange.
🤦♂️ Wow, and the Nash one seems to be like 3x more expensive.
Alright, what are you looking for Steamboat? Hopefully we can come to an agreement if you are willing to part with it.

I've got a convertible kit. It's the non-Nash Bridges Cuda.
Fantastic! What is the difference between that and the Nash Bridges version?

I'm looking for a kit that can either convert a revell 71 cuda into a convertible, or just the 71 cuda convertible kit itself.
Thanks -
She done!
Finished it up today, alongside the mustang. Both look nice on my table, but camera died before I could get a shot of the whole table.
C&C welcome.

Under the hood, and with the rest until I get the bumper on.
I am overly happy with the wiper blades themselves. It's a silly little thing, but I think they just look nice. -
I am really close to getting this one done. In all honesty, it is my best automobile model yet (just watch as i accidently sit on it or something).
Once the front bumper that Mustang here provided (many many thank you's to him for that) arrives, it will be the last touch.
Instead of BMF I might instead do molotow pens or maybe do black trim instead. Not sure which yet.
Chrome trim on one seat, one to go.
Also for size comparison with the GT. -
Little progress. Still need to finish the engine though... http://www.spamodeler.com/forum/images/smilies/icon_thumbsup.GIF

It's shiny...

Thanks guys!
Neat to know that you worked on the GT Gotnitro.One thing I noticed about this kit, and I don't know if anyone here knows why, but the headlights are not road headlights. Are they specialized racing lights?
Those are the real ones,
These are the kit ones

Thanks, I have one on the way now. Please remove this thread.

So I started this kit a while ago. I forgot to start a thread though, so here is what I have done and where I am now.
-
Great colour!
-
Same colour combo I did, looks great!
-
Is the Firebird still around?
-

As tittle suggests. Mine broke and then half of it became a rocket ship and is no where to be found.
-
I filed down the headlight insert areas, and that has helped a bit. This was before filing, so the gap is a little less terrible.

Great kit, just... don't melt it.
Also a warning, the decals are a little brittle. Just be careful with them.
-
I will get some pictures in a bit. Stay tuned!

Good lookin' lil' build Declan!!! Yes sir....I've been down that no-fit road a time or two but I'm certain you'll work this out.
Got any pointers for the nose? It seems too wide for the body at points... Also the locating "tabs" just... came off.
