Monty Posted March 3, 2012 Share Posted March 3, 2012 How 'bout this: instead of looking to others for inspiration, ask yourself what you would do if you owned the real car and had some funds to modify it. Which colors/engine/wheels/tires etc would you like to have most? Failing that, it never hurts to check out Google images. You'll see details of the real cars you can use to make yours more authentic, and you'll probably come across some ideas you may want to incorporate into your build.

It helps me at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can either buy some from a aftermarket company with or without a distrubutor or use 30 gauge wrapping wire from radio shack. Pretty cheap, decent colors. very nice rob! id like to see one built with a 440 or 383 tho, something different than the hemi that every revell mopar seems to have hahah Thanks Chris. I think Mike nailed it with his red one. The 383 looks great. I'm going to build another someday with a pro-touring look and the 6.1 liter from the modern Mopars.

I used Tamiya X-23 Clear Blue on the inside (underneath?) of the bottle, being sure to cover the edges on the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
