Sweet, I like your build, looks great!

I did mine in Vitamin C with Burnt Orange interior, replica of my high school buddy’s car. I like the addition of the lock support and fender brackets. Looks great so far.

Looks great I love the coke bottle shape theses cars had .

Quick update. I decided to keep as much of it the original MPC kit. I test fit both the AMT Duster and the Revell Dart chassis’. Both seemed more work than it was worth, at one point it seemed easier to swap the tail light panel from the California Flash kit to the AMT Duster, but that would totally defeat my purpose. I removed the rear wheel openings and chiseled the drive shaft off. I sanded the details off the front aprons. Some brushable primer surfacer, now a little drying time while I work on subframe connectors.

So Cool......

Could you show a more detailed pic of the front axle/suspension on the modified version?

Why not do it as a GTX?

Very nice!

Very well done

I cut the rear wheel wells out of the Sport chassis... still a snug fit for the slicks. Body cleaned up and the first coat of primer. Mocked up with the Sport chassis. I’m gonna look at the Duster chassis.

What tire and wheels did you use? It looks great.

I found the wheels in my parts bin, I don’t know where they came from, I just thought they worked much better than the kit wheels,

It’s all good

There’s something about an original kit. Had mine looked like yours, I don’t think I would touch it either. It looks so cool just like it is.

Thanks everyone!
