  1. thnx guys ! thnx ... send me a pm if you cant say something openly .. no warning points there hahaha you can say anything ... i'm guessing it ha to do with the revell valve covers ?? lol
  2. thnx ! tes i think i will use the ribbed ones , they fit better under the flipfront hightwise .. now its a matter of cleaning up the engine block .. looking at hemis and decide what carb to make on top ...will be a single carg .. again a fitment thing .. will fit perfect with a aircleaner where the scoop is .. i could go crazy and close the scoop on the front and open it in the middle and just put a nice blower on the engine with a scoop ??
  3. already looked up some hemi intake manifolds ... found one in the partsboxes that looked very similair ... it was one molded intake then cut out the manifold from the plate untill it looked like the ones i found on google glued a white plate on the engine for now then drilled a hole and 4 mout holes for a carb on the engine lookes like this .. very very rough still needs a lot of work so what are the opinions ?? RIGHT TRACK FOR HEMI OR TOTALLY NOT ...? again i can switch to the chrome version covers from the previous post ??
  4. i need some help .. off course i want a fat hemi in this charger .... now i still had some abused versions , at least i think ..... i can choose from 2 rocker covers , i believe both sets are from a hemi .. found some dpictures from ones that look like like the sets i have .. they are very rough but > wich one should you choose , will be sanded and primered and painted .. but the grey ones or the chrome ones that are loose on the bench ?? not that the chrome ones fit better due to the hight but i could get the grey ones to fit .. just need to change the oil pan slightly opinions are much apriciated ..ohh and these are both hemi covers right ?? i searched a lot and found some very similair
  5. thnx a lot guys !!!
  6. came out nice !!!!
  7. ooops lol well.. i missed that , still text for a dutch forum .... ik woon in ridderkerk en in rotterdam geboren .. woon je al lang in michigan ?
  8. started on scratch build shocks today , first made a bracket out of hard plastic card , used 2 rods i had with an eye ... put a pin needle through with flat head then drilled open some casted schocks out of the partsboxes .. glued in the grey rod ik heb eerst 2 kit schokbrekers open geboord en daar de grijze stang in gelijmd thren cut them .. and made a larger lower surface by heating it a bit , on the pic its not sanded flat on the bottom .. on ne side i had a thin rod of the pin needle coming out .. used chrome steel beads on that side with some round styrene and pinn needles made the bottom mount , later glued a square plate on the back thats gos on the axle put the schocks on the chassis and axle .. also visible the brake discs i will use , look strirdy but they fit in a smalles diameter wheel / rims , discs will be crome and calipers .. ?? painted ... some brake lines later on ! on the tyres now the track width in front will be more narrow then on these pics but for mock up i used closed rim backs that wont go over the discs visible schocks from the front
  9. yes still one of my favorit builds .. so much ttention to detail .. all scratchbuild and in this scale !! love it
  10. well went straight axle ... leaf springs , set the hight ... some mock up wheels ....had to mke the wheel wells larger towards the front bumper ..(longer opening) now i have enough room for headers ad the axle with some shocks .. i need to make shockmounts and shocks now here you see the front chassis section need to change that for the flipfront so cut that off now i need help and opninions ...... 3 options .. opinions are welcome since i like ll 3 options and cant decide ... 1 : keep going like this and just make a serious shiny gasser 2 : keep going like this and make a more weathered (the body) gasser 3. go apolcalyptic gasser and give it some tyres with profile for dirt ...(dirt drag?) a spare wheel on the back , some round rod push bumpers and other stuff you would expect for such a vehicle ...
