MrObsessive Posted September 1, 2016 Share Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) I see this as the next F and F Charger! Might even be a turbo!! LOL! Too bad those cars weren't RWD! They could get up and go however with that turbo set-up, especially in Shelby trim!Every time I see one of those, I can't help but think of all that was wrong with the auto industry in those days, particularly Chrysler. Having to resort to the lowly K Car platform from everything from "sports", luxury, minivans, and even a "personal" car such as the Chrysler TC by Maserati. Remember those???

Chuck Kourouklis Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 Are these in the kit? the TRAINING WHEELIES! I KNEW Revell left something out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr mopar Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 I'm sure glad Revell stepped up and made this 70' dodge charger kit , I'm still going to make a Charger 500 out of this kit ! I have the Parts to do it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr mopar Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Ok Not to net pick this kit to Death , and hopeing that all will be fix in the stock version , and looking at my new FF kit .way didn't Revell put in the 4sp hump? and if Revell goes with this in the stock version the pistol grip shifter is wrong for a console car.

Chuck Kourouklis Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 Hmm.The pistol-grip is on what looks like the shared chrome tree, so it's looking apt to carry over... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr mopar Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Hmm.The pistol-grip is on what looks like the shared chrome tree, so it's looking apt to carry over...yes I agree with you ,I doubt they will change it . The shifter is for a non console car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Kourouklis Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 Maybe there'll be another shifter on the next rear bumper tree to go with the console?Still doesn't address the 4-spd hump issue... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the console is in, it covers the hump anyway .UNLESS if your building a non console car ,,,,,, thats a different story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr mopar Posted September 7, 2016 Share Posted September 7, 2016 I got an e mail back from Mr Ed Sexton yesterday ,the appropriate changes will be made to bring the FF kit to a stock Charger r/tand it should be out sometime in early 2017.

Chuck Kourouklis Posted September 7, 2016 Author Share Posted September 7, 2016 (edited) Awesome! Think I'll go so far as to commit to my prediction now: a Hemi R/T on Rallyes/blank Polyglas tires with the full-width rear trim & pimpin' black "HEMI" hood stripes on the decal sheet. Gut gives me about 85% probability on that. 95% on separate covers for the door scoops. Edited September 7, 2016 by Chuck Kourouklis woops - just saw how many R/Ts online had door scoop covers...

1972coronet Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 I wonder how much' trouble' it would be to :-Offer a manual drum brake master cylinder AND power disc -Belt & pulley arrangement for both manual AND power steering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luc Janssens Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 95% on separate covers for the door scoops. 100%, I don't see them tool up all new body sides, would be a waste of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
