gtx6970

I have 2 of them Would trade them for a couple F60-15 pad printed tires , would like 4, but will settle for 2 OR the blue stripe slicks from the amt parts pack tires or, 4 of the new Firestone tires in the new Demon kt or the red line tires from the new 68 Coronet hardtop

I'll have to ck this weekend, But I MIGHT have a couple

Problem solved. Im going to use the Revell Charger chassis ( actually a good portion of the kit ) entire driveline, chassis and all its suspension I dont have more than maybe a couple hours and the engine bay is almost a drop in ( from underneath btw ) Im sacrificing a Revell 1969 Charger kit So if anyone needs a body or interior, Hit me up I'm not going as far / or as deep into detail as Steve did. The car I'm trying to replicate is Hemi 4spd. So out of the box was out of the question. Thus Im all in now

congrats ,,,,,They make for a super nice kit in the case. I rebuilt a 1960 a few years ago. and have a 59 in the stash , just no idea when I'll get to it

One can only wish . But that would be nice. I have one to replicate my own former car. But have been on the lookout for another one . No luck yet

Very nice I'm assuming resin wheels and hubcaps?

Thanks all. I got brave ( maybe stupid is more accurate ) But I decided it needed the wheel lip and side window opening chrome trim. To match the 1/1 car So I got the 2mm chrome pen out and made it happen. I held my breath the entire time. Im So glad that's over with Now it's done. And in the case...most likely never to re-emerge. Ps....all the chrome trim on this car is the molotow pens

Ok, one of these kits was avail to be built both with a wedge and a hemi So were the emblems on the doors a seperate piece ???

there were / are both road runner and gtx tail lights avail in resin and 3d printed. I have some of the 3d printed versions But same here, dont remember who made them

Anyone know the new tooled parts are in the Ford Longroof ?

Thanks Steve Your conversion gives me food for thought. Did you have any interference issues between the interior tub to the chassis plate Or did you use the Chargers interior Floor and modify it. Is your engine bay glued to the body ? I assume those are resin wheels tires hubcaps ? I will need that same tire wheel combo for sure. I'm wanting to build a replica of a friend's 1 of 1 1968 Hemi RT convertible. But not 100% sure just how much conversion effort I have in me anymore for that kind of work / detail.

Sharp looking Nova

Thanks but stripes alone doesnt help me.

The actual car it replicates I plan to do his 6pack RT/SE Challenger as well someday

Another one done And other than a light waxing . I'm calling it done...for now Other than tires...it's built box stock A replica of a friend's car..although his car . Is a console auto. The kit is 4spd But for me....it's close enough Testors K2 vitamin C orange.( body was rattle canned maybe 8-10 years ago I think.) Duplicolor semi gloss blk for the interior Duplicolor hemi orange engine enamel for the HEMI Comments good or bad...more than welcome. It's good to be retired and have lots of bench time avail.

I would take all the upper blue sections Or just the one by my finger

Anyon used the chassis components from the Revell 68-69 Chargers under the mpc 1968 Coronet bodies yet ? Any issues using it? I don't have any of the amt ertl chassis left over

Thanks I have the parts kits. The are 4 of each size But really don't have much use for that many of the L60 sizes

Yes. Just the roof section is all I need. Just Let me know

Best I remember. the 60s era stock cars just used a widened stock steel wheel The Johan Petty Superbird and/or 64 Plymouth has some good ones in it maybe take a look at the rims in the Lindberg Petty Plymouth I might have some if you need just the wheels

Revell 1970 Cuda kit. Final body to chassis fit. Getting close now If all goes well. I'll have it finished this week maybe.

Mine has a mark on the roof section of the sheet . so really only need that piece I know , Its a long shot . But have to try

In the past Ive used thinned enamel paint. But the only place around here sells testors enamels is Hobby lobby, and its Not convenient to get to as its the complete opposite side of town from me I just bought a bottle of the Tamiya black for grill work , and I like it. Its extremely thin so it flows out nice

Interior is done. Nothing spectacular. Rattle can krylon satin blk Various details picked out with a 1mm chrome pen Grill is done..and came out WAY better than I expected. Brush painted with testors burnt metal metalized. Very lightly fogged with a bright silver from about 2ft away Tamiya panel line accent flowed in the grill bars to highlight them. A touch of clear yellow on the back of the turn signal lenses to simulate the yellow bulbs in the 1/1 car ( I really like how Revell did the head lights on this kit btw ) Then just run a 2mm chrome pen on the outer edge to simulate the chrome mldg on a real one

Well done, The cougar kits can be quite a handfull to get them to sit right
