spencer1984 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Finally finished this off over the weekend. It started as a Revell '68 Charger body on an AMT NASCAR chassis, though there's not much left of either one... Like most of my TV/movie models, I tried to build it as it was described more than as it actually was (e.g., the prop cars used Chevy motors, I went with an actual Hemi as suggested by the rear flanks).

hjracing Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Awesome build! I want to know about your tire/wheel combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randx0 Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Nice build. That's the great thing about chargers they can stand up to abuse other cars just can't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spencer1984 Posted April 13, 2015 Author Share Posted April 13, 2015 Thanks, guys! Just two more to go, and I'll finally be caught up on Vin Diesel's 2nd-gen Chargers... I want to know about your tire/wheel combo. I couldn't find what I wanted anywhere, so they're a combination of several sources. The tires are General Grabbers from B-N-L Resins (link) with custom lettering printed by Fireball Modelworks (white) and myself (red). The wheels are 3D printed items I drew in SketchUp and had printed at Shapeways using their ultra frosted detail (link) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
