nice !

thnx james , well lots of people have asked me what that is .. its only available here in holland .. its just a big rattle can from a diy store called gamma .. its their own brand rattle cans ... here in holland modelbuilders call it "gamma chrome" not how its called for real... it sys its silver metallic .. but it turns out like this ....not real chrome .. not silver its a bit in betwene ... its handy because you have a hudge can , always ready for spraying ... its sprays without any wrinkles .. this stuff > you can not spray wrong , the worst person thinkable could not screw this up .. weirdly you can spray it very thick also

stunning !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

well those look great joe and i love your linkage .. i now have to make a moving part and a cable .... still need to look at several pics how i will make that exactly ...just winged it a bit on the spring ... i did spray the intake and carb with chrome , did the vale covers and master brake cilinder as well .. now parts of the carb will get some gold over the chrome same as the master brake cilinder .. also inside the carb bowl in the holes i will put some cool small round bars , hope to paint those transparent red ....spring is off i wont paint that .. i think the clor of the mterial itself is more convinsing then my spray chrome , also gives a bit variety in tones

this is turning into the most detailed engine i ever build .... started on the carb .. and i decided to scratch build it ...looked at a ton of carbs and decided to make a single crb , a large version ... tryed to mimick it as nice as possible .. now the size is a restriction off course so are my hudge hands ...lol started like this > till this , used several drill bits to get a conical shape , even the top ring is made out of square plastic ... gued some chrome beads in the holes now its very rough in this picture , needed sanding etc.. but on the foreground you see the spring i made using tiny steel wire wrapped around a pin after the pic below i altered the spring a bit . so it sits a tad closer against the body of the carb ... dryfit with the other parts at first i was woryed that the spring was too big .. but in the end after some tweaking i think i can get away with it .. i should have used the steel pins without the round head on ..

thnx carl ! and well yes it wont be apocaliptic .. or real ratty .. the idea is to keep it more shiney ... but i hope to give it a vintage feel / look ..... it turned into a lot of work and at this point it would be a shame to put on stupid things ....i might do the body a bit weathered , like rubber spry on the rear quarters ... more like its been raced and used i guess ?

thnx ! and yes that the goal .. now the next item will be the 4 barrel carb .. will do some research later today and try and make a nice beefy carb set up with all the connections . already found some great looking 4 barrel carbs .. and already saw the one i have is like way to small hight wise .. so i will scratch build the lower part ... alos kind of stuck now since i dont have orange paint for the block .. i'm tempted to spray it red ... but i think it just needs orange right ?

belt and pulleys are painted , added the correct fan , luckely i fund a nice one in my engine parts box .. wich also had the blades in angle all losse dryfitted , the alternator shaft and pulley is painted in a bronze color , later i will give it a drybrush with gold to mimick the gold-ish color front hight .. i didnt want it way up in the air , for a charger wich is quite long that looked weird . still pretty high .. rear is just sitting on the tyres , need to start on the rear axle and suspension i'm in doubt .. should i make the rear wells round .. to fit the tyre shape .. as you often see done on gassers or keep the stock shape ... peeking onder its skirt together with the 69 charger on airride i did earlyer .. now i think i should have just kept it low nd not totally slammed but at the time i loved it

yes nice !!!

whow ... gorgeous !!!!!!!

gorgeous !!!!!

cool !!!

hmmm nice !!!! very nice

looks stunning !!

out the alternator on the engine with a bracket , later i will paint it chrome .. now the pulley sits on it perfect , this was the best fitment / alignement option.. also primered it all the waterpump looks nice now made the breathers on the covers ... tiny stuff lol , the tops are actually tear drop revell taillights (clear red styrene) puleys and powersteering tank primered all together

yes it does .. the alternator is on the engine with a bracket the pulley slides on that .. tis seemed the best way to get it on level and lined up .. also sprayed it with some primer .. when its dry i will post some pics and yes could be a a/c ..hmm dont need that

ahh yeahh that looks stunning !!

stunning !!

nice !

yes look great

started making a waterpump , the pullys , powersteering stuff used these .. but i have much more hemi pictures .. a lot look slightly different because they have been altered bare with the waterpump one with the pullys WORK ON THESE PICS IS ALL VERY ROUGH WORK .. NEEDS CLEANING , PRIMER ETC .. started by making a waterpump .. most wont be visible with everything in place so .. i make like the circle with the pipe going down sideways ad the other hose connection on top the kit engine also was a glue bomb all wasted .. now the kit provided a second pully and belt system .. one was all busted on the engine and this one was still in the sprue .. now it looks like the one on the pic above exept the thing on top .. (what is that?) saw different powersteering reservoirs .. so i didnt make it round but just square , still a rough version complete set up so far , on the empty pully will sit the alternator with a bracket connected to the engine dryfit .. fits nice , the front of the frame with the holes will be changed ...

thnx ! yes i found out they are breathers , thnx ! .. i will make those .. and already got a comment on the fact the coers need to be flipped , they where still loose and not glued thnx for the picture i can use that ~! i already have a bunch but on this it shows the distributer and alternator in a perfect angle

thnx mike ! , just starting .. engine , chassis will get way more work ... interiour needs to be all build .. i'm thinking more racy inside with a rollcage .. maybe more racy seats ... after a lot of sanding and changing stuff , looking at hemi pictures i'm a bit further .. now i made a oil filter atachment and oil filter on the right side (looking at the front) like i saw the first gen hemi's mostly had .. filter sticking out horizontally primed the lot and tetsfitted it .. gooing to use a single 4-baarrel carb .. i will look at carbs and put more detail like cables and stuff into this and when painting give it a wash for depth on the valvecovers there is a rough spot .. there was small hole in both covers .. looked like there was ment to be like a oilfil cap but that doesnt make sense so the rough spto is bondo i just put on .. NOW QUESTION !! > the oval shape with the slot / hole .. what is it ? i cant find anything and almost all covers are just closed with only sparkplug holes ?? now i did found one pic of a hemicover that had something similair and it had a sort of thingy mounted on it , so what is it ? i'd rather not clean / close that so close to the sparkplug hole and it kind of looks cool ... and second question ....are the covers on the right way now or do i need to turn them .. they have slots / indentations on both sides so it would be a matter if the slots should be above , close to the intake manifold or like i have them now overall vieuw from the bottom engie will be visible from the front when the front is on .. i like it ..

thnx !

cool body .. and yes i have to agree this looks way better then the gasser look ! stance , whees and tyres look great
