  1. I just had to do the opposite. You can just say it had super track pack now. Looks great. I have the brackets if you need
  2. My seats just arrived in the mail
  3. Absolutely fabulous, you couldn’t have picked a better color. Your details throughout this build are top notch!
  4. Thanks Joe. I had to hit them with micro set again after that shot, they kept curling up on me with how sharp the bend is on them.
  5. Weatherstrip channel on, some fine sanding should make it presentable
  6. Great color choice. It really looks like a high end Hot Wheels car, just like you planned.
  7. Fantastic build. Awesome detailing. The only thing missing are the garage door opening scrapes?
  8. Wow, great seeing this come to life. Watching
  9. Is there anybody making one out there? I looked on Cults3d and Shapeways and did not find any.
  10. The outside shots make it stand out so much more. Looks great
  11. Great interior
  12. In progress picture of trunk gutter, still have some shaping, weatherstrip channel to install. It’s a little rough yet, but getting there
  13. Great modification work, can’t wait to see more
  14. I fell in love with the wheels on that car, so much that I put Champ 500s on the Cuda in my avatar. Cool build, will be watching
  15. Luckily, no avocado in home, but yellows. I had 70 R/T Challenger 440 4 sp F8/ green gut/ top, 71 Challenger F3/ green gut 73 Challenger Rallye 340 F5 green gut, out of over 50 Mopars, they were the only green ones.
  16. Fantastic detailing!
  17. Please delete, I purchased a built Fiero to pull them out of, found scoop on auction site
  18. I definitely understand where you are coming from. This is my first resin build. It got really hairy after I cut out the reinforcement I put in, but is stiffening up with the styrene gutters I have now put in. The thickness of the resin just in the trunk lid varied between .049 and .096, filing it was a very delicate procedure, to be sure. I agree with the Mopar or no car, but appreciate anything nice also.
  19. Growing up in that era, I really disliked all the green cars, there were just so many. I even owned several green Challengers, but this looks awesome.
  20. Thank you for the kind words Francis. As we discussed, I am employing some of your technique on the gutters. I will illustrate later. It definitely does stiffen it up. The widely varying thickness of the resin certainly does add a little more difficulty on this build, but we will get there.
  21. I am enjoying this one! Following
  22. Love it. It reminds me of when I used to sell parts at Carlisle. I had a 67 440 block I sold to a guy, when he picked it up, he put it in the trunk of a really nice red Rambler’s trunk( was powered by a 360 magnum)
