SpikeSchumacher Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 (edited) Hello Everyone, This is a little project that I built for a co-worker. Revell kit mostly OOB, Pegasus wheels (painted), slightly modified suspension, mesh grill, Detail Master hood pin kit (sheesh!). Shaved door handles, front bumper, rear pan. The lettering on the front, lower grill are his initials. Thought I would personalize it a bit. Tamiya rattle can TS-14, X-10 for accent colors, Testors Wet Look clear with LOTS of wet sanding/polishing. I am pretty sure that I will not be doing an all black car again any time soon... Thanks, Mathias Edited May 30, 2017 by SpikeSchumacher
Slotto Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Nice 'Cuda. My favorite year. Those wheels look great. If the car is still in your possession, please post pics of the engine and interior.
shoopdog Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Very nice Cuda, I would hate to have to give that up!
prostreeter69 Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Very Nice! Love that Black! You pulled off an amazing job on that paint.
D. Battista Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Outstanding.....!Love those wheels on that car...!
espo Posted May 30, 2017 Posted May 30, 2017 Beautiful paint job. I like the way you did the grill, looks much better than stock. The way you painted the centers on the wheels makes them look very deep set.
Snake45 Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 Revell kit mostly OOB, Pegasus wheels (painted), slightly modified suspension, mesh grill, Detail Master hood pin kit (sheesh!). Shaved door handles, front bumper, rear pan. So, not really anywhere near OOB at all. Regardless, that's a sweet-looking ride, and one of the best black paint jobs I've ever seen. Well done and model on! PS: Black paint jobs are FUN! I just finished a '71 Cuda in black, and I polished the kit plastic. It's not quite as shiny as yours, but it's pretty darn shiny and I'm proud of how it came out.
PARTSMARTY Posted May 31, 2017 Posted May 31, 2017 I'm a mopar freak and that would make anyone proud-congrats !!!
SpikeSchumacher Posted May 31, 2017 Author Posted May 31, 2017 Thanks for the kind comments! Here are some pics of the engine and interior... Mathias
TooOld Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Definitely not OOB but you did a fantastic job ! Black is tough but you've shown that it's worth the extra effort .
geetee66 Posted June 1, 2017 Posted June 1, 2017 Beauty and menace rolled into one.superb job!my workmates wouldn't even make me a cup of tea, let alone a stunning build like this!
darthsideous Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Man just a beautiful build of a very mean looking car!
berr13 Posted June 5, 2017 Posted June 5, 2017 Excellent! Did you have to modify anything to use those wheels and tires? Great looking 'Cuda!
