cool !!!

painted a distributer in silver and red , when thats dry it can be weathered wipermotor on its place , needs weathering and i will make the holes with shaft sticking out where the wiper sit .. maybe do one wiper on one off windows in need work already put some green in the seems i will also make the firewall wiring and put it somewhere not connected ..

aircleaner top in black with a bit of flyrust the decal all scuffed up that top was placed on the fromt crossmember .. i opened up the inlet manifold and also made mount holes for the carb on the corners .. so it lookes more intereting and like part where ripped off (or bought lol) outside pics

thnx Lloyd ! just gave it a wash with black that brought the patina to life ..colored the panellines and made the engine bay filthy

came out nice i like that its not over flaked like this ..on this i can build on with weathering... add runner , filth , real leafs on the body ....try to make a partially peeled of vinyl roof the real springs look great , the hinges need some layers now !

the engine bay , with poped up hinges aand the engine in a base rust layer .. will get all the details later , just the base those hinges are too thick so started sanding them thinner a bit thinner and made holes for pin , cut out the fake spring and will add a real spring base layer of rust taped of the engine bay and roof and sprayed orange ... i hope it turns out nice .... we will seee

thnx Lloyd test fit with the body steering wheel imo looks good weathering wise from old christmass napkins ... jut cut to size and only thing i did was sand it with used sandpaper , making it rough and a tad dirty from the stuff on the sandpaper test on the hood , slt is drying atm .. weird i buid a lot of weathered but this is the first time i actually try the saltmethod lol

cool !!

after the post i got the feeling my version looks like a set of worn seat covers , like aftermarket .. i distressed the apolstery more andd that looks way better .. was a bit of a try out first time i really went abandoned on a interiour

yes hahah thats right you are sharp !! ... thnx .. and yes thats true and i think one day i will build a charger in this style shiney .. i could buid several tbh all different styles .... just came home from work and made a new shifter , used the kits sleeve and made a new rod and gearknob .. the revell version is horrible , rod is way to thick and the knob too small in comparison ..

just gave the bare floor a flyrust look , you wont see much of that with the body on but ooh well ... and then went in with the white pigment powder .. got that from a guy at a pigment powder factory ounce .. its white pigment powder they use in paint fabrication .. man that brought it to life and made it look old ... much happyer now ! put in a old tyre i ounce cut in half ... later i will put in tiny real mini leafs and some small car parts , not too much just a bit

thnx dann ! , i could have saved it but with all the flaws i just felt like going this route .. tbh i'm having a blast atm .. just fun to build weathered the torn seats where hard , after a few versions i just put cloth tape over them , cut into that and peeling it reveiling the foam underneith .. downside is the seat design lines are gone .. i'm not 100& happy with the result .. but for now it will have to do .. still thinking i have a fresh 68 seat different design but maybe i can think of a different way to weather .. that said all the black needs some work i want to try white pigment powder to make it more aged and weathered looking like it gone light .. that will when drybrushed also show the design lines on stuff like the doorpanels and make it not such a black blob here is the blanc canvas , ready for more weathering , you see the real wood on the center console a bit distressed .. with the body on

found a cool reference pic of a similair interiour roughly attacked the seats ready for foam later on did the wood trim on the center console out of 1mm rea wood veneer and painted the steering wheel with a layer paint and some woodstain , spokes more matte silver with drilled holes , center black pre-weathered battery and bras radiator cap start of a busted windshield

nice , nice !

that then is one very special model ... one to cherisch !

nice !! looks great , love it !

cool .. i remember when these where out on the roads over here .. have not seen one irl for ages .. nice job !!

nice build !!

gorgeous !! awsome details

awsome ! great details !!

oh whow thats spot on !! very realistic looking on those outdoor pics ! , clean and yes i build this kit .. its not your slap together stuff .. needs lot of work

looks great !! stunning job !!

few more tones

thnx guys ! the paint is from a local diy market in holland called gamma , its their own brnd rattle cans and that stuff lways sprays smooth as glass .. cant get any structure and just impossible to get ornage peel .. weird but great ....only available overe here .. now i did get a strange rection on the clear ....! overnight its started to rust !!!! whow .... just kidding of course .. and dont shoot me i'll explain after the pictures now why in the ..... did i do this ?? first of all i love weathered building .. but i have to admit after the cobra and charger gasser shiney building stole my heart as well .. fact is i was not happy ...i should have stripped it and started over , first time i build it i shaved the go faster thingy'on the side / door leaving the indentations ..now that looked stupid , i should have scribed the panellines ....and here and there there where a few things that bothered me .. then when refitting the front axle / supension with wheels and all that broke and i could not get the wheels off ... it didnt want to go back in its place ... then for the first time in my build career i gave up , could not be bothered with the build anymore .. i love pics of abandoned muscle cars and after a round on google decised to go abandoned on it ... now it will not stay ruted like this these are the firt base layer , jut 2 types of paint over it with vallejo pigment powder over the wet paint , after drying wiped and some mild spots with acrylic paint .. it looks weird on the pic almost has purple in it .. irl its not like that .. i think the lighting when i took the pic did that .. so thi on a small base plate making it into a small dio , maybe together with my abadoned dodge van i did a while back .. i also hve a spare charger hood to pile on ... idea is to go crazy on details , like axles and visible brakes ...torn interiour and weathered interour ..

hmmm i like it !! awsome kit btw !
