Perry's Resin did a 68 at one point. I have a 69 that I'm going to convert to a 68 and I'll also do the 68 interior. This is the goal:

Next on the list-the Motion 70 GS..

This is probably my most ambitious project yet. Baldwin Motion reportedly only modified two Buicks during their time. One was a 69 Skylark GS and the other a 70 GS. I started with a resin 69 Skylark. I made my own DeLuxe interior and used a 68 Chevelle as a donor. The rest is scratch made. Jay's Resin Hurst wheels and tires. Testor's blue metallic paint (a little dark) and white. Model railroad pinstripe decals. Photo etch GS emblems. I think it turned out great. Comments welcome.

Cool little build. My kids called these minicars "bug mobiles".

Looks great!

Craig your Challenger is super clean. I love the color combo as you can tell!

A friend of mine just retired and he used to have a green Challenger T/A. I built a replica for a retirement gift. I had the correct exterior color mixed by my local paint guy and used a different color craft paint for the interior. I love this color combo even if it was rather unique and lesser seen.

Very nice build.

A colleague of mine just retired and when he was younger he had two Challengers. For a retirement gift I thought I would build replicas of his cars. He had sent me some pictures so I tried to replicate them. The T/A was unusual: dark green metallic exterior with green interior. I got a Revell Streetburner kit open box and a Challenger R/T glue bomb on EBAY. I built the kit OOB and modified the R/T by filling in the hood hole, repainting it and making a single four barrel intake. I detailed both and put heater hoses, battery cables and plug wires on the T/A. I also added an Accell coil because his car had one. The pink car is what I started with.

440 six pack

Got major work done on both. The orange car rebuild is complete. It was not a Challenger R/T so I had to fill in the hood opening for the shaker. The rest was just masking, repaint and detail. The pink car in the photo was the glue bomb I started with. It was a 44 six pack so I had to fab up a single 4 barrel intake and air cleaner. The green car is awaiting mirrors and tire decals to be complete. I added a resin distributor, plug wires, Accell Super Coil, heater hoses and battery cables.

A colleague of mine is retiring soon. He had two Challengers at the same time: a 1970 Challenger T/A and a 1970 Challenger convertible. The T/A was rather unique: dark green with a green interior and the convertible was orange. Quite a pair! He once remarked that if I ever built one he would buy it from me so I thought doing them would be a nice send off. I found a T/A kit and a resto candidate on Ebay. The kit was a first for me-styrene, no resin, no handmade parts. His car was mildly modified with M/T valve covers and an Accel Super coil. I found the coil in resin but no luck on the valve covers so I painted them black. The kit has good interior detail bout minimal engine detail and a flat firewall. I added heater hoses, a distributor and plug wires and battery cables, For the firewall I made a blower motor, wiper motor and ignition amplifier. I used craft paints for the interior-a first. It turned out okay. I used embossing powder for the carpet. Exterior paint PPG acrylic enamel in the factory color. I need to foil the body and do decals. Tires and decals are from Fireball in correct E-60 and F-60 sizes. His car had Pro-Trac 60's so I ordered the decals from Fireball. The resto candidate was a Challenger convertible that had been badly painted pink. I carefully masked and repainted the pink bomber and am just detailing it. I still have to do the engine compartment. Pictures above in the post. I read through those posts and still could not fix it. First time for me.

Trying to get around the "page not found" problem. I have text but it won't go through so this is a test. Bear with me. I can explain the pictures.

It says "that page can't be found".

Just tried it again and no go. Is it something I'm doing that they are catching? It is a long post.
