Captain Spaulding Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Just finished up this morning my build of MPC'S 1974 Plymouth Road Runner. For an older kit went together pretty well. Like most older kits has it's issues, can be built it into a nice replica though. Built it pretty much box stock, wanted an easy build and this one delivered. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bisc63 Posted May 21 Share Posted May 21 Nice color choices, and a nice overall build. Simple kits can be fun, AND can look very presentable, as you've shown! We need a better version of this body style; they're under-appreciated in my book. Good to know this one can be made to look quite good.

happy grumpy Posted May 25 Share Posted May 25 Beautiful RR. I too, like MPC kits, what they lack in details, they made up by subject mater, back then they had a nice variety and their bodies were very well rendered. Orange and white stripes suit it well. What's not to like ?. Nice job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
