71 GTX

Recommended Posts

I finished this one up today. Started last month as a build-off between me and a friend. Paint is a custom mix of three craft paints and Testors Bronze for the accent color. I transplanted the V10, seats, steering wheel and shifter from the Viper GTS. Wheels are leftover T37's from a Nissan build with Pegasus anodized blue aluminum sleeves. I added a few other small details here and there. Hope you like it.

Thanks everyone! I'm glad you like it. I really like how the wheels turned out too.

Great build! Lovely use of colors and MOPAR-parts. The car screams "pro-touring" to me. 

Those wheel sseem to be the Nismo LM GT4 wheels. TE37's are six-spoke-wheels... Love them both.

Thanks for the clarification. I am, by no means, an expert at identification of wheels. I know these were left overs from another build. 

I got the chin spoilers put on this morning....and managed to knock the driver's mirror off onto the concrete floor. Then I stepped on it while searching for it. Had to repaint and re-clear the mirror and reinstall it.

So- Final-Final shots.
