  1. love it! great job!
  2. Here is another one that is part of my rapid transit system builds , this is MCW paint tawny gold, it has resin carbs and rims from fireball model works, I detailed the engine, under the chassis with factory correct markings as if it came off the assembly line and everything else is pretty much as it came out of the kit. I am just about to wrap this one up also with a few minor things left to do.
  3. Here is another one that is part of my rapid transit system builds I made this one into a 440-6 pack car, although the rear quarter decals say hemi and the shake the hood says hemi. It’s a 440 car.(didn’t have any details that said 440+6.) lol this was a fun build. I did some engine detailing some under chassis detailing like if it came from the factory assembly line, the carburetors and intake manifold from Iceman collections, and the tires and rims are from fireball model works.its almost complete with some last minute things to do .
  4. harts has the resin conversion for a 70 challenger to a 71 model,with or without hood
  5. Thank you!, yes or at least in my favorite colors anyway … I am doing the same for the 70 cuda and 69 super bee’s also
  6. its actually dark burnt orange a factory chrysler color,in the light it looks more orange than brown
  7. Yes it was built quick, the only mods I usually do are the Dana 60 resin rear as I feel the kit one is janky.. plus I add rear shocks from the revell charger kit

  10. honestly im with you on the blue kit offering,although i only have the red a-990 race version,i was under the assumption that the blue one was a stock family sedan type? while we are at it can someone educate me on the single headlights vs the dual headlights on some of these coronet cars?
  11. very nice! it looks great,love the color! interesting on how it compares to the origonal kit,i always find mpc chassis/eng bay lacking in detail including the rear differential,..not sure what they were thinking on that,looks like it came out of a model a

  21. the builders that I know that like rattle cans like them for convenience easy to use instead of a air brush,plus most don't know how to use one,but yes that leads to buying spray cans with more product in them( Rust-Oleum,than the little hobby cans(Tamiya Mr color ect) I get that its cost issues, but its getting into compatability issues hobby paint vs lawn furniture paint with plastic models,also could be a logistics issue some people are miles/hrs away from hobby stores(not to mention them closing down a lot so hardware stores are a lot closer fwiw Michaels craft store closed by me and that where I used to get my testors spray paint but now always paint with a airbrush
