Mopar - D

Here are some updates from today. Little more detail on the engine finished the seat with paint added a floor sifter and also the tail pipes that still need to be painted.

Christopher can you give more details on your build. Are you using the JoHan or Lindbergh kit and what are your plans for the build?

Made some more progress between yesterday and today. I wired the plugs, added fuel line, and throdel spring to the engine. More work on the seat adding and sanding the filler still need to add more filler. Now have the chassis done with the exception on the exhaust at the engine and the tail pipes. I'm thinking of picking up some tubing to make the tail pipes turn to the out sides. Also cleaned my BMF on the trip. I BMF the letters and small trim before painting and then clean off the paint with a damp tooth pick soaked in lacquer thinner I find I works for me. Check it out let me know your comments. Thanks.

Going to look good in B5 blue.

The wheels line up the pictures make them look off center. Your comments are welcome.

I was able to spray the bright red on the body today and a little more work on the seat and paint on the engine.

Very nice build.

Ron this is going to be excellent subject for this Fury. Looking forward to see your progress

Richard you have this one coming together nicely

Here the seat that I'm going for

Some check shots to verify the chassis work with the body.

Rich nice start on your Dodge. I like what your plans are for it.

Also the kit comes with bucket seats that were only available on the Sport Fury so I'm going to turn them in to a bench.

I'm starting out with the JoHan 68 Fury III convertible going to be a factory stock build. I'm going with bright red from MCW and the black and white interior. The kit came with a Hemi that was not offered in the Fury so I've change it out for a 440 instead. I've also decided that the old chassis needed more detail so I have removed all the molded in drive shaft, exhaust and rear end and replacing them with parts from a 70's Coronet. Your comments and suggestions are always welcome and appreciated. Here's my progress from yesterday and today.

John nothing better then building your 1:1. Any more updates on your build.

Finished today here are some inside pictures until I can get some out side ones then will post over underglass.

Here's today's progress. Just have to finish the exhaust and this on is done. Thanks for the continued comments.

Patrick nice build any chance of getting some pictures of it out side.

Got some more work done now have the interior done and installed with all the glass. The engine is also in place now and have the front and rear grill and bumpers ready to go in. Have the spare tire inside and on the underside in and have started on the exhaust system. Here's the pictures

I'm still test fitting now have it so the engine is straight and have tested the front windshield. The GTX glass fit good in the resin body with out much trimming and I'm even going to be able to use the GTX rear glass with a little trimming. Finished the BMF also not much on the base model Belvedere. Found a spair tire from a Jeep in my parts box that will be going inside and also show on the underside. Thanks for all the support and comments.

Great start Jeff looking forward to seeing more progress.

Here's some progress pictures added more detail to the engine and the dashboard.

Your build just keeps getting better.
