actually that one could be a leftover from the 2005 movie, the leftovers from the tv series were already in private ownership by then, the included pic if I remember correctly is how the Charger registry found them before they were sold off, several tv series from the 80s early 90s used leftovers from the show, there's one in a Knight Rider episode and they blow up a Cooter's wrecker in the X files the TV show only wrecked 300 or close to that 68-69 Chargers, which back then wasn't a big deal they were just old cars which they made a great number of and the scrapage rate was very high anyway, I lost count of how many semi rare muscle cars I used to see walking around in scrap yards back in the 80s. what's sad now is the classic cars that are now considered scarce or rare that they are still wrecking for movies -
guessing you used Paypal or a credit card to pay ?? so just take the steps to obtain a refund and be done with it

Maybe something here would work but I have no idea what Mustang drums should look like -

I've always had lots of project cars and a 1st gen Dakota with a 440 was one that was going on when I first started online many years ago so it just kinda stuck

your always safest using like products or systems but when mixing brands and types I've always have had success using enamel over lacquer, enamel over enamel or lacquer over lacquer but never lacquer over enamel because the solvents that make lacquer dry quicker are chemically hotter, can't say exactly for water based cause I don't use it but guessing it would be safe over any dried/cured primmer

very nice, where did the wheels/tires come from ?

Rebuilding a 1:1
440 Dakota replied to 426 pack's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
personally I would do the truck if it is truly rust free otherwise the Newport could be a cool cruiser, didn't you pick up a 66 or 67 Plymouth not that long ago ?? did you ever fool with it ?? -

the local library here already has a couple for public use, I have no idea what brands/models I've never looked in to using them -
Fujimi wheels size question
440 Dakota replied to 440 Dakota's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Thanks I figured that, guess I should've asked for overall height and width of the tires -
Fujimi wheels size question
440 Dakota replied to 440 Dakota's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Sorry brain is mush right now, have lots going on, so here is the question, Is there a chart that list the heights and widths of the various Fujimi tire and wheel sets ? -
I just spent a bunch of time searching the web looking for maybe a chart or detailed listing for the sizes of heights and widths in mm of the various Fujimi wheel sets, I've found a couple sets that I want to order if they are sized correctly for the projects

I would buy it if done correctly simply because of scale, but there is not or will never be a 24/25 scale tri five that I will buy again, been there done all that and its time to move on -
Revell '78 GMC 4wd-to-2wd conversion?
440 Dakota replied to brodie_83's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I'm thinking that maybe a 1/24 scale NASCAR square G body kit or maybe a 1/24 NASTRUCK kit would be close and can be found dirt cheap -

Thanks for the info, didn't know that, I was just passing through DT and seen it, thought maybe I'd try my hand at starting a garage diorama, sounds like it would be better to spend a few bucks and get quality stuff -

Don't know if there's something special or different about that brand foam board but if you have Dollar Tree stores near you check there, its a buck a sheet and I think its 20 x 20 size 1/2 thick -
