How the car was originally equipped. The OE stock tires/wheels go on it every so often, he just prefers it with the 15x7 and F60-15 tires/wheels -

The dark tan car came out of a Junk yard in Canda. But this picture IS NOT the hemi car. This picture has traveled the net and mentioned its the hemi car. That info is false -

Both the duster hood And the 71 Challenger grill and tail panel were so thin and flimsy there was no fixing it . I eventually dropped them all in the trash -

Ive bought from them before. a sixpack style hood for the AMT duster and the 71 challenger conversion. All was garbage. Just looking at the picture of the tail pane tells me is trash Thanks, But I will do without first -
Anyone know who made or still makes the side scoops and tail light panel for the AMT / MPC 1970 Coronet I saw them on ebay a few years ago, Now cant find them

Thanks gents. it started off to be a high detail build ( ie, the trunk was cut out to be hinged.) But life gets in the way sometimes, with time passing me by, Plus it being bounced in an out of a box , on and off the shelf for nearly 15 years. Has taken its toll. It aint perfect, or even close to it , especially compared to others builds here. But Im at a point in life to get some of the stash out of the boxes, built and in a case ( actually just ordered a 4th case for the wall this morning, NASCAR Diecast Model Car Display Case 24 Car 1/24 scale (carneyplastics.com) So I decided to just do what it needs to make it display shelf ready.

Well, after nearly 15 years. This one is about done. Its survived many many years bouncing around in a box . Including a cross county move 6 years ago. After retiring last fall. Im trying to get back to the model bench on more of a regular basis. I got it out a while back and its been bouncing around on top of my tool box for about a year now,,,and I simply decided to do something with it . It's taken a bit of a beating over the years. But not enough I feel the need to redo much if anything. The car is a replica of a long time friend's actual car ( he sold it well over 20-25 years now I think ) its gone thru a few owners since he sold,,,,Most recently it sold a couple years ago at Mecum. 1970 Plymouth Superbird for Sale at Auction - Mecum Auctions Ive taken some liberties with the build, so I'll call it more of a tribute to his old car at this point, simply because I want it done, Finally It has its issues , like the nose decals cracked under the clear. It has a mark on the hood now I cant rub out . A broken vent wing frame I need to fix ,,,etc etc. Its come down to the fact I want it out of a box and in the case. But I can see the finish line on it now Picture is taken with a replica I did about 40 years ago of my former 69 GTX
