Would it have been nice had they made both injector stacks? sure. It would have made it much easier. But ,,, I have to say. I am for one extremely grateful they made the kit at all. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever think an altered wheelbase Mopar kit would have been produced. Let alone BOTH body styles

The only way I could see making it . Was once the tubes are cut. Make the seal plate and then reattach the tubes on top. I just wasn't that motivated to do it. But...I'm getting closer by the day Engine is in for final time All fuel lines are plumbed in. And interior is done. Wheels are done. Kit versions for the ft. Revell '67 GTX supplied the rear wheels / tires On to final assy .

Looking good And I have to agree. They are an addicting kit Im on my 3rd AWB car in the past few months , Plus I have 2 of the A990 stock wheelbase versions waiting in the wings

You ever finish this one ?

Thanks Its the details Little things, Like the routing of the brake line. Brass colored radiator tank. The actual car didn't have the panel behind the grill that holds the hood latch panel, So I removed it on the kit. Leaves room to locate the fuel tank to the ft side like the 1 / 1 had Thought about making the panel under the injectors to seal it to the hood, But gave up on that idea pretty quick. Had I thought I was going to get this far into it. I would have ground the molded in firewall wiring off, and made my own. I like how Steve Guthmiller makes his * Notice the actual car appears to have had a chrome bumper. I'm told it was aluminum. Not painted fiberglass like some of them had.

Very cool. These make for a very unusual, but very cool drag car There were several back in the day

Looks good I have this very build on the bench. Right now

All Slixx - Decals are on. So far zero issues. This one might just make it out exactly like I want it to Edit, Champion decals have been removed. Seems should have one or the other. Not both

Same here I thought it was real. VERY well done. And yes. They are a very nice kit

I admit nothing

Looks good. I've built a few of this kit over the years. Recently did one earlier this year I went with orange ext and white interior Plus I have one that's on and off the bench. I'm converting to a Coronet RT convertible They go together really well and make for a nice shelf piece.

Only took me nearly 10 years. I actually started one of these maybe 30 years ago with a Johan kit, That one,,, Didn't turn out so well. These Lindberg 1964 Dodge and Plymouths kits are one of my favorites to build. As I think I have 6 different versions built. And decals and kits to do maybe 3 or 4 more to do. (better get busy I guess) Needless to say, I was glad when this version came out from Lindberg. As its one of my favorite SS cars from the period. I've always thought it was a killer looking car . Actually, saw the 1/1 version many years back (probably a clone) Well, going thru my display case this morning I noticed this build was never completed. Missing just about everything under hood. Except the engine itself Rear axle was broken. Taillights were gone. Not a pretty picture. So, I took a few hours today. And I can 'finally' say, it is now. Except for the bench seat conversion. It's just a pretty simple basic box stock build Thanks for looking. And comments or criticisms are more than welcome.

Much thanks for the confirmation I 'THINK' the decal is on the Cady sheet I have for this car Need to double ck before I go looking

I thought early Ford or maybe Mercury As I have both 63-64 Fords And Mercury conv builders And recognized the ribs in it

It will have to be stripped to bare metal before you can get paint to come out right Any kind of residue will cause issues

If and or when you ever have it painted. The painter is gonna cuss you and cuss you some more

maybe 63-64 Ford Galaxie boot ?

I got plenty of tinted windows now Pick a color , any color

For me Key is , and especially rattle can paints made for 1/1 cars A - test first B - even then spray light coats. I use Duplicolor rattle cans quite a bit. Usually sprayed straight from the can. And they can be a bit hot and/or go on to thick if you're not careful.

Speed city resin made one as well. I myself would much prefer a stryene kit.

This is MY way of trying to replicate the wrinkle finished Hemi valve covers on Hemi street cars Strip the chrome, ( I use oven cleaner ) 2 light coats of primer, black is avail . Ive used both black and grey with no changes 1 kinda light coat of the wrinkle paint. Ive been using VHT brand , pick it up at my local auto parts chain store Let that sit in the sun maybe 5 - 10 minutes Then a second coat a little wet Let that sit in the sun maybe 20 minutes, Gives you this . IMO it yields the most correct finish in my eyes to date. I build A lot of mopar muscle cars and I've tired several different paints - methods My photos makes the finish look a lot more pronounced than it actually is. In reality it looks so much better than anything I've tried to date Simply sharing My method

many Many thanks Mine looks ok. I'm happy with it I guess. In all the pictures I could find the fuel lines on an injected hemi were outside the tube stacks . So that show it did it. Once this engine goes in the body. I'll finish the lines to the tank and pump and call it done.. I have all the major assys done, waiting on a new Slixx decal sheet ( my Fred cady sheet is old and I wanted a backup here as a just in case ) Then I can knock this one across the finish line. I would excitedly second the idea of an AFX Mustang kit. I started one of the Gas Rhonda car many years ago. Got as far as a kinda sorta done stretched and painted body - chassis . Then got frustrated when I couldnt get the hood right. SO boxed it up and that's where it is today. maybe 15 or so years later.

If it wasnt for my lighted magnifier, I would be dead in the water

my 1st one doesnt have them . This one and my Bud Faubel car are the only ones and they ea only have the longer one.

The long one is on it The short one...I broke. Can't really see it. So not gonna worry about it
