Ive found myself in a situation where I need the clear glass for one of my 67 Plymouth builds Mainly just front and rear glass Also, I would like to come up with a couple / 3 of the stock H pipe system from the same revell 1967 Coronet Its the only exhaust of the bunch that has the turn down style tailpipes . All the other Mopar kits from Revell have chrome tips

Like this a bunch I've got the lindberg kit to do this car. Might have drag it out here soon

Thanks all. This one is shaping up far better than I ever expected . Or strive to achieve actually So am trying my best to take my time. Waiting on some engine detail supplies before I go any further
-
I'm thinking this kit is something like 20 years old now..give or take????? I remember when it came out and the common talk was it was a reasonably accurate kit . I have an original AMT version. Or I would have built one . Looks great btw

Interior is now done Added some photo etch seat belts. And the correct shifter Sat down for several hours and knocked out the BMF work. That was fun. Ok. Not really My neck and shoulders paid the price. I'll spend the rest of the day with a heating pad on me.

Anyone think of any recent / current kits that might have an open face helmet in it Before I go tearing thru every kit I have in the pile I know I have a helmet around here s, somewhere but sure cant find it

edit, Going thru my vintage magazine stash. I found an article on this very car And I have just enough stuff wrong , That I will not be happy with it Changed a few detail items in the interior , tach and shifter BUT,,,,,I'm going to start over on the engine with a different one

While relaxing watching basketball last nite I decided if I could fix a few tiny snafus in the paint. So dove in with some 2000 grit wet and dry . Then polish , polish and polish some more. I have to pat myself on the back here. I think this is the best paint job I've done in my life. And Im amazed on how well it slicked up and shined up like no other before it.,,,,ever in my lifetime. . This is not something I usually strive for. This is all Tamiya colors with Duplicolor 1K clear, All rattle cans. All very light coats untill maybe the last 1 or 2 passes with clear. Those went on quite wet. And the car shined up real well . But I had some tiny dust bunnies in prominent areas I didt care for . So after a few days to cure. Out came the sand paper and polish . I used 1mm Tamiya tapes to lay out the stripes . Then very light passes to get color on the body. End result is I have practically zero edge lines between the colors Needless to say Im thrilled beyond belief I do have some silvering around some of the decals. Deep down , Im not real surprised. As the kit is getting old ( Ive had it since they first came out ) BUT,,,,,I can live with it Interior is just a mock up , Im waiting on some aftermkt parts to make seat belts out of before gluing it all together

simple update. Found some photo etch emblems for the kit. So decided to use them Belvedere on front fender and the 426 Hemi emblems ( I had screwed up and sanded the molded in ones off. ) As this particular body was originally intended for a different version that didnt have said emblems. So when it was decided to do the Grotheer car I had to figure something else out Also tried my hand at making a stock body color twist off fuel filler car as opposed to the chrome flip cap for the GTX Working with pieces so small is trying on the patience believe me !!!
