If you can't find one on here, you can check https://www.sourkrautsmodeltrucks.net/ . I think I recall seeing one on their site before.

Love that pic. You even have the figure with the cigar. That is so cool. Looking good I might add.

Restoration of fathers ole GTX from the early 80s
dwc43 replied to Rescued customs's topic in WIP: Model Cars
Looks good so far. One thing though, not sure how realistic you want it to be, but you can't use slapper bars on a real Mopar. They don't work since the springs are made to spread apart as it launches. Kinda of like a leapfrog where both front and rear jump up together when it launches. It's a common mistake a lot of people do when building Mopar's. Hope that helps. -

That will be a cool pic to pull off.

Looking good so far. Can't wait to see it finished.

You're welcome. Sorry, I could not find a pic or a definite answer.

You're welcome.

Sorry about that. I got the wrong car. Anyways, from what I was able to find out it was blue. I can't find a single pic to prove it though. I did find a die cast car and it is blue and I'm sure they strive for some accuracy on that model cause it was a limited edition run of only 400. Sorry, but that's all I could come up with. My guess it is factory blue turquoise.

These cars ran 426 Hemi's, and they are Race Hemi Orange. A different shade than the 340 or 440 or Street Hemi orange.

Looking good.

Ah, no problem. Thanks for looking.

I got a plate and the winch that goes under the bumper from the Balzer kit. And I got a fairlead as well. So I am good with that. If I could find the brush and grill guard similar to the one in the pic, I'd be really happy. Duane is sending me one and I think I can mod that one to work. I think the one that I want that is a full guard came from a monster truck kit, but I'm not 100% sure about that. I do know that it exists though.

Hey thanks. I appreciate that. I'd be glad to pay for shipping or whatever you need if you are looking for parts.

Any glass would do. This one does not have a hole cut in it yet. Any average size for a truck roof hopefully with rounded corners. Thanks.

I realized I needed a couple more pieces and edited the title and first post. See below. Thanks. Can someone please print me a set of decals to match the ones on the tires in the pics below. I'd be happy to pay for the decal paper, ink and shipping or trade something for it if I have it in the stash. Also need a sunroof glass if anyone has one they don't need.

Thanks. Maybe I can work some magic on them and make it work. I'll send you a pm.

I'm wanting a specific grill and brush guard. I included a pic of one that is similar to what I am looking for. The one in the pic sits on top of the bumper, but the one I want is a full guard that mounts in front of the bumper and hangs a little below the bumper. And it has the bent tubes like this one has on the inside of the head light area.

If you can't trade for them, Sourkrauts has them. I found these on the front page, but I know they have more and they have rubber tires too. 2 HOLE WHEELS WITH HIGHWAY TREAD TIRES (TANDEM SET), 2HHTS — Sour Krauts Model Trucks https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/613a4372bbfed37548993107/53dd0e6a-6b46-47a9-a3a8-354405916617/2HHTS+2.JPG?format=1000w
