One superb Cuda. A job very well done. The paint looks amazing. Big improvement on those headlights.

Thank you everyone for checking out the build and the kind words.

A couple WIP pics.

I just finished this Moebius Dodge as a weekend bracket racer. Originally, I wanted to use a Hemi, with an inline 2x4 barrels, but couldn’t find a manifold. So I tore the hemi heads off, and added a set of RB heads. Now it’s a stroked out 440. I made this intake out of a resin intake and some styrene sheet. I don’t like it at all, but it’s there to stay. The tires, wheels, and tach, and racing seat are Futurattraction. Roll bar is .080 styrene rod. Dominator, fuel lines and wires, seatbelts, gauges, are ProTech. Distributor and wires are Morgan Auto Detail. I really like these kits, as I have a couple more in looking forward to building.

Thanks for the offer, Bill. I explained everything to him. He’s not really concerned about ultra correct detail. He just wants a GL to display on the shelf. Maybe down the road I’ll eventually build a GL using the Revell 68 & 69 parts.

Thank you everyone for the replies. I have all the information I need now.

Anyone have any opinions on the AMT, or the MPC kits?

Thanks Jim. I saved that article in the link you provided. The build you did looks fantastic. So basically the 69 Revell kits have vinyl roofs, and the 68 is a hardtop? The front grills are basically the same? Was it difficult to fit the 69 taillights into the 68 body?

I have a friend that wants to buy the 1/25 scale of the MPC version of the General Lee for me to build. Is the MPC kit the only, and best version of this car?

Great looking Roadrunner.

Very cool build. I’ve been thinking of doing this build myself, as I used to drag race a 92 Firebird Formula. At least I don’t need pics, because I can build it from memory. I used to run Centerline Convo Pros on mine but can’t seem to find any of these wheels in 1/24 scale. The Revell Nova has Centerlines, but in 1/25 scale. I’ll be following along in this build.

I found a nice RB intake from Scale Parts. I paid over a week ago, and messaged them asking for an email confirmation. I got no reply as of yet.

Thanks. I never turn down a fellow modeler in need.

I just ran down and checked, and I have one. If you are in the US, pm me your address and I’ll send it out to you.

I can check tomorrow and if I have one, it’s yours.

You did this one justice. Looks just like the real car.

Wasn’t he bit in the face by a Black Mamba in Kill Bill?

I’ve always wanted to build this car, and when this kit comes out I’ll definitely buy a couple.

Fantastic work. All those Mopars look great. I like the rear light work you performed. The lights on those old Lindberg kits should be like the Johan tail lights.

I see on their site they are offering sale prices for the 4th of July.

Thank you sir. I just ordered two of them from their site.

Found an intake online from 3D ScaleParts. Has anyone ordered from them? Are they reputable?

I hear ya. I built 14 Thunderbolt cars, as I acquired all these decals for them. I enjoyed building every one of them. I have the Lee Smith car, that I started when Moebius put the Plymouth AWB cars out. I wanna finish that up, and probably do the Al Eckstrand Golden Commandos car as on the box art.

The Dodge came out very nice. Love the interior. Is this your first Moebius AWB, Bill? I omitted the roof decal on mine. I’ve seen pictures with and without it.

Absolutely stunning. That’s one pretty Monte.
