The rest of the parts have been coming together and getting ready for finishing

Interior was blown apart for paint and then reassembled

The kit was cleaned up and painted - easy to colour match as I have the real thing to copy. The pix show a difference but they are the same

I recent post in Under glass prompted me start this thread Subject is 56 Dodge Custom Royal Lancer which I have had since 2016 It was imported into New Zealand in 2011 from Texas via California. It was modified in the States with the original poly engine and trans replaced with at 360+727. The rear end is a 10 bolt Chev. Chev power steering and column added. The naughty bit was where the original modifier weld the Chev pitman arm onto the Dodge arm - doesn't fly in NZ with our strict car modification rules So to get over certification issues I installed a Jag XJ6 front end - disc brakes, power rack, anti-dive geometry all make for a better solution Colour is salmon on the lower half and black on the upper The kit is a MCW resin repop of a bank or a friction toy that has been tidied up

Nice color choice I have a real one of these - two tone salmon lower with black upper Rodded with 360+727, 10 bolt Chev rear and XJ6 Jag front Have model in the works so will post pix when done

Has Revell gone bankrupt? Any one heard anything?
