I needed a quick and fun build after two bigger projects were completed. These trikes are perfect for that. This is the milk trike, however I went with the pop machine scheme, and used Testors Lime ice and Testors Inca Gold on the seat and engine. It reminds me of Mountain Dew, my fav soda before I quit drinking soda lol. I can’t recommend Revell Spray Chrome enough. It’s a bit expensive but boy is it good. Even better than spraying Molotow thru airbrush and seems a tad more durable and dries quicker. So this is 4 of the 6 finished…2 more to go at some point. What’d ya think Shoopdog?? ?? Thanks for looking ?

Thanks! ?

Wow that’s sharp! Clean work and a killer color! ?

Really cool! Nice work ?

Thanks much! ??

Thanks bud, appreciate it! ?

Great looking Duster! You’ve done some great detailing especially under the hood. Very nice!

Thanks Bogger, appreciate it! New decals on the way…I can’t hack these ?

Outstanding collection! Love the 71 Cuda, the ElCamino, and that Trans Am. Nice work

Beautiful work on all of these! Clean work and nice paint on them. Love that Willys and that cougar especially ?

Thanks guys! If I had a full chassis I would have swapped, but yes I’m happy with the outcome ??

Thanks ?!

Thanks for the nice words! A Sox n Martin version would be great ??

Thanks Jim ?

Thank you sir! ?

Thanks guys. Andy…those wheels came in the kit. One of the bright spots of this kit, along with an accurate body. They are the infamous “recall” wheels that were breaking on the real cars at the time.

Thank you!

Thanks a lot guys! Yep just a bit of work makes the engine bay much better. Those decals are going to be replaced because it’s bugging me lol. But im happy with it overall ?

Thanks! I agree, these were good looking cars imo

Thanks! Almost went with a couple other colors but glad I didn’t ?

Thanks guys, appreciate it!

Thanks so much ?

Thanks guys! I couldn’t choose a color, glad I picked this. ?

Hi all…I’ve had this infamous MPC kit in my stash since the early 90’s. Decided to dig it out. We all know about this kit and its lousy chassis and inner wheel wells etc. I’ve got an AMT Duster and a Revell 69 Dart, but they’re both still unopened and I didn’t want to raid them for chassis and other things. So, I looked at this kit and decided that the thing that bugged me most was the inner fender wells under the hood. I decided I could live with the chassis, if I could get it to look a little better under the hood. Then I remembered that I had a Revell dart body in my spare parts box that I had picked up at a meet for a couple bucks, figuring that it would be worth it to have in case of emergency should I ever get around to the Dart lol. So I cut out the wheel wells from it and then those huge crappy blobs in the barracuda and fiddled until they fit just right. Didn’t take much. Paint is Tamiya Titanium Gold. The black stripes were crinkled on the sheet so I used the white. I should’ve gotten aftermarket replacements because these are a disappointment, but for now it’s what it is, and at least I won’t feel sorry for the kit anymore everytime I gaze at my stash of unbuilt stuff lol. Thanks for looking! ?

Very nice! It’s held up well over the years!
