68 Coronet

[Hard_2_Handle_454]

Got the new AMT kit.  It's not too bad.  I just wish they'd get rid of the hippie sunflower decals and add decals for the dash, turn signals, DODGE EMBLEM.  You, know, useful decals.  At least they have headlight lenses and mirrors in this kit.  It's pretty easy to build.  No real issues.  Went through three paint choices before settling on the red.  Doesn't look bad.

very nice work 
they did include 2 different sets of gauge decals one set the guage faces are black and the other set the faces are yellow 
as for the flower power decals it makes sense why they are included think of the year the car is from and the hippy movement  and the psychedelic rock and pop music was big during the late 60's all that stuff goes together

Nice Coronet.  The red suits it.

Lookin' good in red, and that engine bay is especially well done.

Yeah, but it was only for two gauges and not all of them.  I kinda get the flowers, but not on a Coronet.  Mustang, maybe

For me the only vehicles I would put them on is a panel van or a vw bus or vw bug

Nice Coronet Eric. I'll have to get one of these kits. Yours looks great in red with the white interior. Well done. 

Cheers,

Always loved Mopasr from that era, this one's no exception. Great choice of color and nicely put together.
