The plate I used is a 1998 design from Acme License Plate Maker. The plate could have been updated somewhere along the way during the last 20 years or so. Again, thank you!

The Story McNally stops at the Coffee Shop for a large coffee only to be met by a shooter with a long range rifle. As he hides behind his Jeep Grand Cherokee LTD V8, he peeks over the front fender and looks around for the shooter and he finds him on top of the building next to the Coffee Shop parking lot. The cops across the street at BPD Headquarters coming running out and one of the cops shoots the shooter on top of the building. McNally's life is saved, but Jacob Anderson will not be happy at this turn of events. The Build I detailed the dash and the engine cover with decals. Some water and a little Solvaset and I didn't sand off any of the details as the instructions told me to.

Thanks D.W.! That is exactly what I was looking for!

Will Trent Porsche 911 Targa Work continues on the Will Trent Porsche 911 Targa. I have installed the windshield, and the Targa roof, trimmed the sides and front visors, added the light lens to the front and rear and added the rear license plate holder. I have not been able to find the license plate for Will's Porsche so I may come up with one and print it out.

2021 Dodge Charger R/T The Story McNally decides that it would be best that he move out of his house and into his safe house which he keeps in Dorchester. He bought this old warehouse from the city dirt cheap and no one doesn't seem to know its whereabouts. He even installed a remote garage door opener so he could drive in and out at his leisure. The Build After adding the tie rod to the spindles, I noticed that the tie rod could have been a little longer by about 1/8 inch. I cut the tie rod in half and added a piece if styrene tube to lengthen the tie rod. I also notice that this is a 4-door and the interior side panels have a slot for a shoulder harness and I added one to each side of the interior. Maybe I'll try my hand at making the shoulder harness receiver for the other side of the front seats.

Thanks Rob and D.W.! D.W., thanks for the Youtube tip on Flashpoint. I may look at it and see if I like it.

2021 Dodge Charger R/T The Story Jacob Anderson had received some of the property from Margret Archambault when she went to prison for murder and RICO charges and he rules them with an iron fist! His second in command is Dean Macomber and he updates the career criminal with the latest goings on in his group including McNally. Dean tells Jacob that several teams went out at different times and they had failed to kill the Boston PI. Dean suggests a different approach and Jacob is all for it. The Build The chassis and the interior are nearly done and all the chassis needs are the wheels and tires and the interior needs the dash and steering wheel to be detailed.

Yes, tax credits are always a welcomed thing. I had to research Flashpoint and Night Heat to find out what they were as I have never heard of them. As far as I know, Will Trent will return now that the actors strike is over. It was a successful series on ABC and it deserves to be seen again in new episodes. My guess is that it will return sometime in early 2024. Many networks are now committed to their various schedules and they will stick mostly with them for now.

Thanks Kevin! The color choice comes from the fact that I have used too much grey in the past and black seems to be a good choice.

dwc43, it probably won't be back until early 2024. I'm still trying to figure out why Georgia is the new Hollywood. It seems that many shows seem to be produced there. Must be the lack of Covid requirements in that state.

Will Trent's Porsche 911 Targa I got a coating of clear on the body and other painted parts. Now for some assembly.

2021 Dodge Charger R/T The Story McNally stops at a large dealership in Chelsea that had a car he was interested in. The car was a 2021 Dodge Charger R/T in Bright Blue Pearl with a Black interior. It has power everything and an 8-speed automatic transmission. It was a beautiful car and more like something he could surveil in compared to the 2010 Charger Super Bee in Orange Pearl that he had now. But, the insurance company didn’t like the bullet holes, blown out rear window or body or the slipping transmission. The Super Bee was junk! He takes the car out for a test drive and the salesman did nothing, but talk and talk and it was driving McNally crazy! McNally finally spoke up! “Please be respectful and quiet while I test drive this car!” The salesman says, “I’m giving you the facts about the car. How it drives, its many features…” “I have a 2010 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee. It is basically the same car as this one. If you don’t shut up, I’ll hog tie you and stuff a rag in your mouth. Understand,” says McNally? “I understand. Sorry,” replies the salesman. After the test drive, McNally turns down the offer for the car which he thought that it was too much money and he walks away. He’ll let Victor Arronsky buy the car and offer him the car at a substantial discount. The Build I fired up the paintbooth this afternoon and painted most of the remaining parts in the kit in various shades of black.

Thank you Mario, James, Robert, David, Eric, Garry, Donato, Dennis, Bill and Carl! I had won a bid for this kit and the rest is history! This was the first time I had won a bid for anything!

They are! Thank you michelle, Lee, L M, and Jeff!

I built this 68 Charger R/T many, many years ago from the Dick Landy Charger kit by Revell. The headers, air cleaner, wheels and tires came from my parts box.

2021 Dodge Charger R/T The Story It was almost dinner time and McNally stops at Mario’s Back Bay Pizzeria to talk to Zach. “Hey Zach!” “Hi Mc! Been a while. How have you been?” “Good! Can we talk?” “Sure,” says Zach and he leads McNally down to the other end of the counter. “What’s up?” “Someone has a contract out on me. Can you help?” “Sure! I need a few minutes. Hang loose!” Zach pulls out his cellphone and he calls a mate who puts him in touch with someone else. Zach puts his cellphone back in his pocket and he walks back to the end of the counter with a small piece of paper and he hands it to McNally. McNally shakes Zach’s hand and he palms him a $20 bill, turns and walks out. The Build I assembled the wheels and tires. The body is ready for paint and the chassis is partially assembled. The Build The wheels and tires have been assembled. The body is ready for paint and the chassis is partially assembled.

That is the same color I used on my Lotus Europa Twin Cam Special. I didn't use any clear on the Lotus. Your Charger is looking good!

Looks great! What paint and color is that blue?

Thanks John! I don't have high hopes for an AMT model which is why I stick to Revell and other brands. The less work I do, the happier I am! LOL

I'm glad that there is more than one '21 Charger R/T being built on the forum. Looking to see yours done!

Thanks Steve! 2021 Dodge Charger R/T The Story As McNally leaves the Hospital, he knows that the hour is late and he should go home and have sometimes to eat. When he gets home, he finds Charlotte Rothmann upstairs in his bedroom packing the rest of her clothes and is startled by him. She wanted to leave him, but before she left him, she wanted to pack up the rest of her things and leave him a note on the kitchen counter and leave. Not this time. She was leaving him since she can't put up with his dangerous job. The Build I felt like I should patch the hole up and I did. Since I now know the the hole is covered, I just felt that I should do it anyway. No one has said anything about the firewall. McNally will return...

2021 Dodge Charger R/T The Story McNally gets a ride to the Hospital to talk with the remaining suspect who is still alive. He enters the room and the cop guarding him steps out. He pulls his Smith & Wesson Model 4506 from his should holster and sticks the nose of the gun in the suspects should and causes him much pain. "Who sent you after me?" McNally again sticks the gun into the suspects should and the pain is unbearable and he repeats the question, "Who sent you after me?" "Dean MaComber and he works for Dean Anderson." McNally sticks his gun back in his shoulder holster and leaves the room and the cop walks back in to guard his prisoner. The Build Typical AMT! Fitment issues! The first picture is the strut cover on the left side with the body attached. Note the gap which I will have to fill. The second and third picture shows the firewall in place after I modified the firewall mounting points and lowered the firewall some. The unmodified firewall would stand as least the width of the plastic above the chassis. I wonder what else I will find? I thought AMT would have done away with these issues!

I avoid the forward metal axle by replacing it with short plastic rods the size of the axle. I glue them on so they don't roll on the table. I even did this to the Revell Foose Ford FD-100 pickup.

Thank you Jim!

I once saw a 3rd Gen Hemi in a new Charger and the Hemi Orange showed up in a small 1X1 inch corner of the engine. I feel that a Hemi is painted Orange no matter what generation it is.
