  1. harrypri you and a lot of others. I must admit, it is a very nice car. I get stopped everywhere I go in it. I just cleared it today, will try and finish the replica this week. Will post pics upon completion. Very nice kit. Could have done a few things different though. The rear has a metal axle that runs thru the spindals and diff instead of having axel shafts like the Testors Chargers. Same suspension on the real cars, not sure why Revell chose this way to do it.
  2. The show was good but, then again all 8 of them have been. great to see some older drag cars that haven't been there before. Great pics by the way.
  3. Thanks diymirage. The paint is actual touch-up paint that I paid over $20.00 for a 12 oz. can using the paint code on the 1:1. As far as the 1:1 everyone ask me about the color, strips and wheels and they look in amazement when I tell them I ordered it from Dodge the way the sits. Gets a lot of looks.
  4. Since receiving my Revell 09 Challenger, I have worked non-stop on it. I had purchsed paint and decals prior to getting the model kit to build a model of my 1:1. I am going to use Pegasus Torqs with the tires from the AMT Challenger. Here is what I have so far. I am waiting to get some more clear and less humid weather to clear it and then I can finish it. What do you think? My 1:1
  5. Here is a link to her website. They are using some kind of cleaner that was designed for use on bridges, I believe. Seems to be cleaning up but not perfect as one would suspect. Pretty interesting stuff though. http://missbelvedere.com/
  6. I have a 1993 Dodge Dakota Club Cab wit ha 318 from the factory. Runs Great looks better than new. No digital pics of it. Have had it for 11 years. About 2 months ago my special order from Dodge came in. Back in Feb. I went and placed an order for a 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T Classic. I ordered it in B5 Blue. It has '71 inspired strips and 20" Crager mags. It only has the 5.7L Hemi with 371 horse and 401 lbs. torque (which is plenty for the street). It is awesome. I can go out in traffic and almost cause accidents with people turning there heads to get a look. Some people have stopped in on coming traffic to look (and almost get rear ended). No digital pics of these either but here is one just like it.
