Ok, Bring this one back to the bench . I had ,misplaced the hoods and found it last week So, back at it Except for the resin hood I plan on keeping it pretty much an out of the box build. Although might use the deeper rear rims from the SM Cuda Got the stripes on the hoods painted today but they will need some light touchup before I clear them. Plan is use the decals from the Revell 67 GTX

Fred Cady did both I might even have a sheet

Accurate to the actual car would be dependent on when in the season you are trying to replicate. Wheels changed a lot back then. But.... the ones shown were on it when I bought it several years ago

I was told many years ago by someone who was in the know. The tooling for the MPC 1971 Roadrunner was heavily damaged. And was zero chance this kit was coming back unless they start from scratch. If I were a betting man...the '72 variant is in same boat I have both kits in the stash so I have no skin in the game if it does.....or doesn't .

Ill be following along Curious what you do with this with this I have both 63 and 64 builders. Both verts. One I'm gonna keep The other will be making an exit soon Just not real sure which one

Im not so sure the batteries are in the trunk on 440 cars Hemi cars yes.

.

Nice build. Its my understanding this car was built as a 4spd and changed to an auto within its first few races. Thus your Carb version and 4 spd is accurate

Sweet, This is one on my short list probably this fall build

Agreed The Revell 1969 is a very nice kit

Well. It doesn't fit my 1960 Dodge built up So if anyone needs this bumper. Pm me

I didn't think there was a 1960 Dodge wagon made It might be resin. Im not 100% sure either way

Trying to figure out the application for this.

Nice. Sure looks the part very well

That kit is unpainted I think( been some time since ive had it in my hands) It really needs redone The Missle Duster is poorly painted flat black. So both will get redone someday...... soon I hope I have slixx decals for them all. When the time comes Apologies for the hijack

Thanks I did a quick basic search this morning and found none..except a few dealer promos Myself prefer a 1965. But only because of the Indy Pace Car version I personally like the 67/68 body style better and have a clean 1968 conv builder . For that sometime down the road build

Thats my quandary Im not 100% happy with it as is But not dissatisfied enough to pull it apart. I bought it with about a half dozen other old MPC pro stock / drag cars builders off ebay about 10-12 years ago. He listed a bunch of builtups. And I bought all the Mopars and the Schartman Comet None are perfect ....most are ......OK The SM duster is the worst. The Comet is the best one

Agreed And I have to ask,, Is a 1966 Fury kit really that hard to come up with ? To justify such a price point for a resin curbside kit ? The subject matter isnt in my wheelhouse so I have no idea .

Slixx does . Or at least did make the decals to replicate that particular car I have a decent shape original built-up here I keep thinking I want to redo someday. Just cant bring myself to pull it apart for such a minimal upgrade

Im pretty sure both the Leal duster and the Vanke duster have all stock interiors I know the Sox - Martin Duster, The Landy Challenger , And I think both the Missle Duster AND Cuda are all gutted race only interiors

Testors White Lightening

Poof, and just like that, Its spoken for Mods can delete this if they chose

Anyone know of a source for the decals to do this very car ? All I have seen are decals to do the modern livery of his max Wedge car ( which I have )

Fixed NOW. its done

Not sure what to do with this one, Maybe someone out there collects boxes. And with this one already gaining traction as something of a collectable. Maybe someone out there wants it more than I do. So, Anyone interested? Want wall art maybe? I have another one I stapled to the wall in the garage for shop art.,,just because I think its kind of a neat box. Just to be clear. There are NO parts or decals. Simply a box and the instructions.
