bauercrew Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Just finished this up ,SORRY all mopar fans tryed three times to do the wood grain interior,gave up said heck with it painted black, had issues with the rear tail lights fitting right, the frame was really bent badly ,and the hood was warped Really bad ,when i seen those issues i almost threw it in the round file cabinet ,but as expensive as models are now days ,i went ahead with it ,it looks like it going way in back of cabinet on bottom shelve 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bainford Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Agreed. Sharp looking convertible. The colour complements the lines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennyboy Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Looks good to me in pictures. I wouldnt sweat it too much. Quick tip for convincing wood grain: paint the pieces a glossy tan or yellow cream color, then use a brown Sharpie to simulate wood grain. It takes a little practice but the Sharpie will blend and create lights and darks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

espo Posted March 26, 2021 Share Posted March 26, 2021 Looks great in the photos. Was this a convertible kit , if not how did you create the top boot ? A GTX convertible with a Hemi would have been an outstanding ride in '69. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kromolly Posted March 27, 2021 Share Posted March 27, 2021 That looks great. You're the only one who sees the flaws. Put it on the shelf, enjoy it, and build another model! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
