mustang1989 Posted December 5, 2019 Author Share Posted December 5, 2019 (edited) Thanks Leroy, Vi Mar and Dann. Ok fellas. Now I can move ahead with the rest of the build now that I've got this part out of the way. I may come up with another air cleaner out of the stash as I'm feeling kind of "meh" about this one. But I'll call this completed.....for now. Edited December 5, 2019 by mustang1989 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen replicas of these cars on the streets in the past and decided to build a General Lee like I would like to have it look in real life. Now you've got me wanting to search for that episode though. You mean this one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont know what Revell finds so difficult about molding it on, but a disc of thin styrene will fix it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revell actually did a really good job with this kit and I'd recommend it to anybody that wants to build a Charger. Lots of good ideas and details.

mustang1989 Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 Thanks fellas. Ok folks.....being pretty much unhappy with the air cleaner that I had on the engine I searched high and low and found one more air cleaner in my stash that actually goes on a 440 and shot it with Molotow Chrome through an airbrush. This time the results were pure magic...…… This looks MUCH better to me.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
