1980 Dodge Ramcharger box stock


Recommended Posts

This is my box stock 1980 dodge ramcharger. i painted it a tamiya off white. Its my first model since my last :) that was a while ago since i last finished one all the way through. I have been wanting to build one of these for a long time and something always stopped me. its not perfect, but i am pretty happy with it. i learned a lot from it and i think i might rebuild another at a later date. it went together quite nicely and i didnt have too many issues.

Nice work!  A funny thing.  When I built mine a dozen years ago,  I also blacked out the grill.  As I put it out to show at a club meeting one of the club nit pickers came over to point and remark that this year truck didn't have a black grill.  I roared back, "It's my truck and if it was 1:1 mine would have a black grill!"

Yeah, but I am pretty sure that no model A had a V8 from the factory either.... :lol:
Nice build.
