Im not a street rod guy by any means, BUT, Having used to work in a shop that built high end cars. I can fully appreciate the effort, time and money that goes into these kinds of builds. It takes a team from start to finish and an owner that's committed to bring it to fruition . I used to work for Clay Cook whom built this one https://www.hotrod.com/features/award-winning-1937-ford-woodie-long-way-beach/ In person these cars are phenomenal and like any cars done at this level it would take days to understand and take in all the little details it takes to compete at that level

Close, Larry Griffiths Provided the slixx decals still work ( fingers crossed )

Wow. They look good. I'm afraid I'm not getting that detail involved I'm thinking at the most plug wires and fuel lines. Or just keep it box stock????

Yes....actually already gone since these pics were taken

I was after ( since found ) a Landy SS/EA Dart kit . This is not Shirley Shahan's car, Good guess. Though, Ive never even considered that one. Might have to look for decals now that you mention it . I have several of these kits on the shelf

Nice, I have the decals to do this car. And its on my short list . Probably this summer Chris is the 1st one to finally do this sheet with the correct colors https://www.ebay.com/str/gloryyearsdecalsandgraphics

Hemi was a light pumpkin orange up to 1968. ( aka race hemi orange ) And maybe even some Very early 69 street hemi

Very nice Ive always thought The Keeling - Clayton cars were one of the best looking FED of the era , bar none

Nothing fancy Probably gonna be a stock box build with exception to aftermkt decals. Been a while since I've done one of these. So felt better ck it closely as I go along. I was actually a little worried I had opened the rear wheel wells to much. But.....I think I have it about right. ( fingers crossed ) Anyone dare a guess which car it's going to be ?

THIS ^^^^ I buy based on subject matter and that alone. Accuracy is secondary If I don't like the subject ( not matter who makes it ) Its simple. I don't buy the kit.

I built a base line Duster to replicate my brothers 1/1 car. Bought the grille off Ebay 7-8 years ago

Round 2 was basically created to create and cater to that niche. And I for one, Am ok with it just they way it is. Keep in coming In regards to the other manufacturers in the world today. I have zero interest in 90 % of the kits being produced . Outside of Round 2 and Revell, There is basically no kit that catches my attention But Im not the only one buying model kits either

agreed, Biggest difference be it the grill and the interior Exhaust is different if you want to get picky

I'm sure the reasons it's made offshore has far more to do with costs than anything else. I seriously doubt " Can't or Don't Want To " have anything to do with it.

Same here . But...then again. I have an MPC 1972 Duster builder kit So that one is not tops on my list. But a friend of mine owns a 1972 Duster. So,,, I will be getting one to build his car

1960 chevy wagon. 1965 Barracuda 1972 Duster. Finally. Something I will open the wallet for. All 3

Steve, I have not completely ruled out modifying the Revell dash just yet The upper dash differences are the 68 V shaped - thinner versus 69 straight across and thicker Im waiting on some aftermkt pieces for the car,,,, so its off the bench for now, While I finish up some other long ago started projects One being my Petty Blue Superbird thats been on again and off again more times than I care to admit I did pick up some paint for the engine . so I can get the correct shade of orange for the early cars . Gonna be an interesting clash of colors for sure

This decal is the one I think would be my best option

I dont need the hood blackout or license plate decals Mainly just the 3 GTX and hood engine size callout decals I want to do a build of a very good friends car

Found. Thanks

Edit I now have 6 of them my desires list is above.

I havent completely ruled out using the dash from the Revell charger yet. But so far I think its going to be more work than its worth I have the ac vents in the MPC dash filled already , Plus ground the not so accurate console from the MPC floor and will be using the console from the I think is Revell kit Mine will basically be this car, Only black interior , top boot and rump stripe . Beenie hubcaps with redline tires

Yours if you want them

Thanks all. It's not perfect...nore my best But I really like how it came out.. So thank you for the kudos

I know this is a Longshot But im looking for an original mpc 1970 Challenger builder kit. Don't need tires . Wheels or drive train. Want an uncut body and no holes in the hood
