Charger Funny Car

Probably my favorite race car of all time and I'm a Chevy guy! This was a Japanese kit and as all my experience with Japanese kits was pure pleasure. I love making vintage drag stuff but American kits suck! I love Tamiya stuff. The fit and finish are always precise with zero flash which is pretty much the opposite of the American brands. Which is a shame because I LOVE our drag racing heritage!

Just wanted to put my own twist on this build. Lowered the chassis a bit which in turn made the hood not close all the way but.... the car sat a little to high for my taste so I made the sacrifice.

Love the stance!!!

Originally built this as a Fearless Fred 69 Roadrunner Funny with resin body. After finishing the build I accidentally dropped the body on my carpet and the window pillars blew off! I disassembled the car, stripped the paint off the chassis, repainted it black and painted up the original Charger body with a can of paint I had saved for years.

Beautiful job, bravo!

Built this one from the Wild Willy kit but was inspired by the Nanook car. Good kit, easy build and lots of room for creativity. Have 2 more for a Fiat and....

Loved the body in this kit but tires, headers & blower scoop were not of proper scale. Came up with the answers from my parts box. Paint job was faulty so I started experimenting with rubbing car wax in spots which created lighter tones. Mistake turned into a blessing!
