72 Charger

Hi all I know technicly this is not a kit but i thought that you may like it !It started life as a Tamiya king hauler but its had that much done to it its now far from what Mr tamiya came up with! The grill is custom made from ally as is the bumper . The hood has been removed then had a V cut in the top and all the rivet detail removed then the sides were filled to match the KW new headlights were custom made plus the headlight surrounds were reshaped then a 1/16th Caterpiller V8 fitted under the hood .The body has been lowerd 10mm and then another 10mm added to the bottom of the cab and sleeper and LED's added along the bottom edge The sleeper roof was scratch built to match the aerodyne and the sleeper was also streched 2inche's. The chassis has been streched 4inche's and a stainless steel chassis plate goes from the back of the sleeper to the end of the chassis .All the wheels have ally center caps on the hubs.The trailer is also the tamiya flat bed this has been completly built from ally and fitted with lights alround. I hope that you like my little rig if you have any questions I will be happy to answer them and I do have more pics if you would like to see them Doobie

Looking good bryan Im the same when I put the xacto tho my finger I reach for the super glue first lol

That wood looks good but with a truck that looks that old surely some of that wood would have been broken split or just lost?
