yes very nice !!

nice build !

nice ! is that tamiya ts-92 paint

and a rough strart on a custom exhaust eventuelly that will end with side pipes .. i need to replace some tubing , just a first set up

i needed to make smal brake discs for the front , not a lot of room in the rim .. turned out the 32 ford revel discs fitted great so i de-chromed them and sanded off the calipers .. took 2 big calipers from a old bigger toy car and cut one cliper in half , cut out the shaoe in the discs so i could serapate paint them and glued them together making it look like the disc runs through the caliper .. again just something nice and not overthought .. again fitting in the re;tive quick makeover of this charger dryfits on the car , painted the dics with metal coat and the centerss black so they would become one with the mount bush on the rim and gave them red calipers all finally mounted with the wheels mounted for good , this iss the final ride hight and stance in te front (dud that so i can build rods and braces while everything is on , just winging it )

dang ... sooo nice !!!!!!!!

cool !!

stunning !

thnx guys !! and the caps are indeed out of the 68 charger charger revell kit , i got those from the glue bomb kit that i turned into the gasser.. so the wheels are bastards .. mazda steelies with 2 bbs and 2 unknown rim rings with 68 charger caps ... hahaha ....

thnx for the idea .. you rock turns out that looks spot on ...see below thnx .. rear will be raised slightly then its perfect i think an those hubcaps just brought it to life man sooo cool and what a difference , really looks musscle car now ! main susupension is mounted inside wheels and bushes black , now i need to alter and partially make brake discs will get so much more detail underneith .. going to run fuell lines , brake lines and i have much better material now then when i did the charger gasser .. thin brass rods .. perfect size

could be cool je .. i could try something .. i think i have some small caps .. i think i like it better the way it is now .. but i will def. try.. and you are sharp on the lug nuts hahahaha just got a great idea how to change the orange bushes on the wheels and so i can keep them and not widen the bars .. i have 2 brake discs that fit inside the wheel , without the edge sticking out they fit over the bushes ... making them a part of the brake disc assebly .. i found a wat to hide them .. when i will actually make it and its done i'll post pics to explain what i mean .. bit tired now so i wont be building ...then it always go's wrong lol

thnx guys !!!!!

thnx .. here is part of the new suspension in black > found some schocks that will work .. i want to remake the bars to the chassis that the charger originally has ... the bushings on the rims (orange) i need to change that later , for now it works dryfitting .. i could widen the suspension bracket .. we will see

thnx .. well i already tackled the oil pan just altered a pan with a notch and closed it .... going to use this suspension it from a oldskool nissan z ... will be altered and fit to the charger , already cut of ome parts .. just needed something that would fit and with this i can build up some cutom suspension and it fit in the idea to revamp this one without making it a massive build .. after a while i could dryfit the front wheels with part of the suspension so at the front it sits on the supension and the ride hight is set .. i could go a tad higher still but i kind of like it .. on the rear the body jut sits on the tyre that will be rised and the car will get a mild rake painted the pan red , the front and rear chassis where painted high gloss black , to bad it doesnt really show on the pics .. but it a nice contrst between the gloss and more matt black on the floor

thnx guys atm i have several suspension parts on the bench , oil pans , i will have to create something custom ..since i dont have the kit supension ..would be easyer to start from the ground up .. but this one is glued so tight i will leave it , make something decent from it ... then after that start a more extensive build

i understand willie and you are right i already was aware of the issue i just wanted to close it , i need to be sure i have the final tyres and then i can see how i will sit hight wise with wheels and suspension ..then look at adding a new pan .. i have several oil pans but in a way i was running into problems hight wise , these are just pieces of styrene on there .. i already cut one oil pan in half because part of the stock pan is on the engine with the new styrene on top ...so if i peel that off i can glue on a part pan out of the parts box and then paint it ... my way of building is a bit like i start and see where i end up and usually i change stuff several times along the way .. first need to get some general idea's.. look at my gasser charger build.. that took some while and i changed around on things a few times .. and no worry's you can say stuff like that and i also strive for realism so in that way .. i feel you ... so maybe i will try to peel of the whole pan , also the part with the bolts that was still on .. and fit a whole pan .. or make something custom , wider then now and a tad higher .. will need to be a mix between ride hight and ... you know ?

thnx joe .. this wil not be a superlong or extensive build .. just want the undercarridge to make more sense and make it racy , brutal ... i'm thinking about making / masking off a design and then spray it on with matt black .. so its just visible .. not the black on it now is not a very deep gloss .. onl got one thin layer of clear back then .. so this gloss with a matt design would look awsome i think .. also i'm thinking about a mild weathering , mainly make it look like its been blasting on dirt roads and it tad dusty round the wheell wells ... i'm even tempted to make it even more rough ...maybe a difefrent colored door ?? not sure yet ... could be cool ...maybe too much ? anyway i needed to make the massive tyres run free , i made the leafspring a tad more narrow on a point where it doesnt really show there the tyre sits .. and then spread the body panel behind the rear tyre ... on the lower prt of the rear quarter panel . put small strips in between the panel and chassis bringing the panel out some more and that gave me the room to run the tyres free without hacking up the body .. the rims finished , need chrome lug nuts .. but they look great i'm so happy with the outcome its resting on the tyres so it will it a tiny bit higher lter on .. but man this is the look i wanted , a sinister racy charger when i spread the quarters it also came out at theback where i worked the rear bumper into the body .. not a probem its going to be a tiny bit rough overall and dirty there

thnx

stunning !

nice !!!

yes i dont know what i was thinking back then .. seemd cool at the time ... i want it to have some nice deep rims .. bit like the wide steelie style ... some styling ideas on the look for the rims (general feel) started with mazda steelies from a old roadster mazda .. cut a second set of rims and used those ring to create the front rims rear rims will be even wider , used bbs rims for the rings the full set just sprayed them satin black , pic right after paint still wet , will dry up satin .. going for the black on black , will make it real sinister ...maybe even black out the grille / headlight surround ?? of try to make a custom panel there with visible headlights ?

thnx a lot guys !

thnx a lot guys !!!

it started out like this
