    na, i dont think its chryslers licensing, cause if you look at 1:1 parts, any chebby parts are cheaper then any mopar parts, its BS.

    wait wait wait, you used CHEVY rims on a MOPAR, how dare you! j/k, howd you turn em into mopar sqaud rims? very nice build
  11. added frame connectors on the challenger also added the lift blocks in the rear to get the stance my dads goin for and decided to go with the squad rims
  12. thanks guys, glad yall like it
  13. thanks guys. the jeep is actually dupli-color metalcast red over dupli-color metalspecks blue with two coats of folkart hi-shine glaze. the 46 dodge will be painted gloss red with gloss black fenders/running boards to resemble one i saw at a dodge delership in monroe WI.
  14. got the a-pillers lined up got a lot of work to do on the roof now startin to look like a car now
  15. got this in the mail today, 46 dodge tow truck. yes its a die cast, but after some of these projects itll get tore down and painted/detailed
  16. got some paint on the jeepster
  17. got the header panel narrowed so that the hood now fits right also got the hole filled in teh correct hood
  18. thanks man. i just measured each side of the roof from the 1/4 window to the end of the 1/4 panels and the measure up the same, or REAL close so im not sure, ill fix the front 1st and see what happens. as for the front i think im gonna cut the header panel in half and narrow it, cuz the more i look at it, the grille opening looks way to big so this will fix two problems in one ill keep yall updated on how on it
  19. ok i got a couple problems now, and i need ideas/suggestions on what to do. #1, the a pillers dont line up. the drivers one lines up correctly on the door, but the passenger lines up on the fender, should i take the right half of the roof of and widen it just a tad? #2, the hood dont fit now with the 74 header panel in. and i dont wanna cut the hood in half, cuz i wanna keep the DODGE letters on the hood since my dad is leavin them on his car. i got 2 hoods with the vanishing point chally, BUT they are completely different. the one with the hole is the one i need, cuz the lines are correct and it has the letters should i take the headerpanel back out and try to narrow it in the middle?
  20. got the roof on, just got a lil work to do to get the a pillers to fit correctly
  21. roof still has a quite a bit o work yet but its gettin there
  22. since im in MCBA im steppin up my game, while i was lettin the jeepsters base coat dry, i started some choppin. i had gotten a 72 challenger a while back, but was missin the bumpers, grille insert, all the lights, the dash, seats, and hood. i want to build a replica of my dads 74 challenger, and i remembered i had this vanishing point 70 challenger. and since its a convert, it wouldnt work (came with top but is way wrong), and the windshield doesnt have the chrome trim. so the 72 got chopped up for its header panel, tail panel and roof. enough talk, heres the pics
  23. well my homie had gotten this jeep off ebay and he knew i wanted it so i found a ford in my stash and traded him mock up with a set of rims i had in my stash and shaved the door handles, rear wiper, and rood rack
  24. i might throw a system in it, not sure yet though
  25. well ive started workin on my 57 300 again. got the motor almost done, just a few more items to add and when i 1st started workin on it last month or so, i cut the trunk open cuz i was gonna put juice in it, but ive decided to just do a static lowering on it, but now i dunno what to do with the trunk, any ideas? :dunno:
