  1. Ive seen the Butch Leal 1965 Belv in person. And it is most definitely orange. BUT, its a restored car so I cant say with 100% certainty if its dead nuts accurate or not
  2. I tried it under an original MPC 1970 and its gonna take some work but very doable.......plus its far superior over the original AND the AMT challenger chassis
  3. My personal opinion. I would convert the Revell Cuda chassis before I used the AMT chassis
  4. Grills are on there way bud
  5. This weekend I'll put a Johan grill in an AMT body to show how it fits and take a few pics ps, ck your pm box
  6. Agree, For the most part there is no currently avail kit that even comes close to either a 1965 or 66 Fury. The originals are not terribly difficult to find ( 1966 is a little easier than 65 btw ) But be prepaired to open the wallet to get either one,,ESPECIALLY a 1965 I know, Ive tried to get a clean 65 convertible with no luck ,,,so far
  7. Dude, you are the master
  8. I must be getting old when 80s and 90s race cars are considered vintage / old
  9. Depends on lighting .....I've seen numerous pictures of this car....some look red others look orange . Maybe 2 different cars ?
  10. Correct ,,,,but for 1970 and later. which is what the valve cover shown is ( this is 1970-71 style ) 1969 and older have a chrome ( or black in non HP applications ) push on oil fill cap which is on the drivers side
  11. Maybe ride up for this
  12. https://www.shapeways.com/product/YCQLGYTEC/1-25-1969-plymouth-roadrunner-grill?optionId=66298159
  13. Sorry, but the car in question does nothing for me,,,personally think its but ugly. A Cobra Daytona coupe would catch my interest though. Otherwise ;;;;;
  14. This, All depends on what I'm trying to replicate But I quit using anything white enamel years ago due to yellowing if cleared
  15. If I may ask, why use a resin pro mod body that's nothing like the original ? Would have been much more accurate to use the recent Polar lights funny car body as a starting point just asking
  16. I have a few of his, hands down the best your gonna get . You will not be dis-appointed
  17. This is the closest your gonna kit in out of the box stryene I have one avail if its of interest, still sealed inside
  18. I just did a google search for both colors. And my best guess is the Corvette color is slightly to dark compared to the Mopar version.
  19. Nope, thats one rare option on the early cars . I believe the only difference between it and drum brake master is the reservoir is taller on disc brake cars ? I do know its still a single reservoir casting This particular car has already been converted to the 67 and up dual reservoir brake system ( still drum brakes though,,,,,,,but disc brakes are in its future if I do acquire the car )
  20. I can tell you that medium copper ext,,,,especially with a copper interior is an absolute knock out to see in person . Pictures do NOT do that color justice ,,,,trust me
  21. I'm a die hard Mopar fan. Its the only thing Ive owned since maybe the late 70s I'm actually in process of finally putting some vintage mopar iron back in my garage for the 1st time in close to 10 years ( the actual car in question ) 1966 Plymouth Satellite , 426 hemi , console auto. Black with dark red interior ( the original color combination ) If all goes as planned it will be in my garage this fall ( maybe sooner )
  22. Shame that 67 300 isn't a convertible. I would be doing my best to talk you out if it
