michelle Posted March 4 (edited) this is my second build for this year i built this replica of the hot wheels car dixie challenger from 2 different amt 70 challenger parts cars and a set of 80 volare side window louvers i got from tom geiger and a piece of sprue i moded for the grille spliter i based the paint and decal work on the 2009 hot wheels issue but i swapped the colors of the flames and body for the model the hot wheels car is a dark metallic blue body with black flames and i did the model body in blac with blue flames which came with the current issue of the 66 parklane which i als got this january the roof was a pain to get lined up and glued right the frond edge did not want to line up nicely with the top of the windshield frame the is some changes from the hot wheels car i made like not having the grille split attached to the leading edge of the hood the hot wheels car had 8 exaust pipes on either side of the car but i changed them to 4 on either side the hood is from harts parts resin Edited March 5 by michelle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
