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

Dash / instrument panel done. I ended up just painting the woodgrain as I could not get the decal to stick Gauges glued in from backside. With clear Elmer's glue on the ft side / faces to give it a clear lense look. Again..thanks all for looking.

My 2cents here But a quick cursory view Engines from the era used a 4 bolt valve cover thus have a slightly different shape than later 6 bolt models In you file pic it has holleys - not avail in that period , should be carter AFBs Air cleaners should have a defined flat back edge and nearly touch each other in the 1/1

Define ' Classic ' For me personally, My numero uno is a 1961 Chrysler 300 convertible

WOW< Just doesnt seem to be enough. But , WOW is all I got. Impressive sir

The kits center clutch is chrome, I just dabbed some clear yellow on it to give it a kinda sorta factory look

Wheels and tires done. Tamiya flat aluminum rims with a light coat of testors burnt metal for the centers Engine done. Painted with duplicolor hemi orange Engine enamel..built box stock. Chrome Valve covers stripped and sprayed with duplicolor black wrinkle paint. Overall just detailed with various shades of paint

Body was already painted. I didnt catch the wide flares in time

Thanks. I have the remains of the sheet for the Charger . Plus I have an extra sheet from the Revel Landy SS Dart kit and I will most likely use it for the upper Blue/Red body color stripes The darts side red color decal has a slightly different shape than the Coronet would require. So probably will have to paint the red side panels

This is another kit that was painted years ago . then boxed up for one unknown reason or another From the beginning it was Slated to be a replica of a long time friends actual car . 1/1 is real deal Hemi auto , 4.10 Dana car Only deviation planned from box stock will be AMT pad printed Polyglas tires, in F60+ L60 15s like the 1/1 car has . Kit builds as a 4spd. The actual car is auto. But not likely I will change that in the build . Jury is still out on that Painted K2 Testors GoMango / Vitamin C with black interior to match the 1/1 It has some scuffs in the paint , luckily I still have the Testors can and hopefully It sprays out well enough to repaint the body and hood. Fingers crossed on that. If not maybe I can decant it and break in my new to me airbrush I got for Christmas. If not, I will have to look at other avenues for paint. If anyone has hints or tips with any known issues with this kit. Let me know

The AMT Duster 340 , out in the open Shown alongside the underscale 340 from the new MPC 1971 Demon kit

Spray it flat black, then dry brush the raised edges and outer edges silver It lends itself to some decent detail work

I have the 4 from I think is lindberg / imc Little red wagon Same deal. Yours if you want them

I have all the glass. EXCEPT a windshield Yours if you want it

Lindberg 1964 Dodge and Plymouth

Thanks all. It's not up the caliber of some here. But I have so say. I like it

Is anyone making a decal sheet yet for either of the 2 cars

Long shot but....im Looking for just this size Would like to have a total of 8 this size The amt kits come with 4 - F60s And 4- L60s Not sure if these were avail any model kits or not

I have these Actually have 2 sets of 4 Not 100% sure what they are out of. Yours if you want them

Painted Testors Hemi Orange rattle can at least 10 years ago I think. Then rumbled around in a box for years , even making a move across country in 2018 I retired in 2023, And finding I have a lot more free time on my hands. So trying to work on the model stash along side house projects in the works Not a whole lot of detail. Real close to box stock I guess, kinda sorta. maybe The Hemi is from the 68 Roadrunner kit. Which is painted with duplcolor Hemi orange engine enamel 'Tires are parts pack items, wheels are from the AMT 71 Duster Rump stripe is an old Fred Cady decal which has turned out to be very fragile . It likes to chip away , even though it has a clear top coat on it after it was applied to the body . Im not super happy with it. BUT,,,,, Its done and in the case. On to the next one.
