Car Crazy 81 Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 I've started on this build two years ago. It started out as a Revell Revellion Funny Car the kits dragster frame was brittle and crumbled up so i came up with an idea to Pro Street it. I filled in the gaping hole in the decklid since it won't be no longer a dragster. The frame is from a AMT 70 Coronet Pro Street the frame fits just right except had to trim a little material from the rear. The main roll bar hoop is from a Lindberg 64 Dodge 330 and the side bars are scratchbuilt and the snout bars are from a AMT Nascar kit. I'm still undecided on the engine.
louie Posted January 28, 2016 Posted January 28, 2016 Yeah, That is nice. I love the way your going with it too. Thanks. Jeff
mustang1989 Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 This is heading in a direction that greatly interests me. Great ideas so far Rick.
Harry P. Posted January 29, 2016 Posted January 29, 2016 Good idea to ditch the "Revellion" thing, which is nothing but a cartoon car.
vc273 Posted January 30, 2016 Posted January 30, 2016 Very nice Rick dont see to many early model pro street mopars very refreshing. Will definitely be watching this one.
Car Crazy 81 Posted September 13, 2016 Author Posted September 13, 2016 Some updates on the Dart it has paint at last the color is Rust Oleum Ultra Cover Gloss Almond.
randyc Posted September 13, 2016 Posted September 13, 2016 Nice. I did a similar with a Johan 60 DeSoto Adventurer years ago. And a Lil Red Truck using the RR chassis as well. Looks great! Randy
426-Hemi Posted September 26, 2016 Posted September 26, 2016 LOVE the work done here! That engine the "MOPAR" decals set it off, what kit or where did you get those from? (I have sort of the same idea) to do that to one of my planned builds, but not sure where to get the decals for the valve covers!NICE job on the Jo-Hans kit!!!!

The 62 Dart im working isn't a Johan kit its actually a Revell Revellion kit from 1967. The Johan 62 Dart was either a 2 door or a convertible never made a 4 door.
