satterwhite78 Posted April 30, 2017 Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) I've always said, "To have nothing to do, I always say busy!". As much as I enjoy building and see others post their accomplishments, I can't always keep up on the photo ops and posting, so it's easier to post all at once when there is more of a relax atmosphere...... 1970 Dodge Charger: The Revell FnF kit bought at the Clemmons,Nc meet this past fall. Falls in line with the quality of the 68 and 69 Revell kits and I'm sure they got a winner when it hits the shelves. Got the last back seat and a rear tail light panel with lenses from Missing Link when it was posted on the forum this past fall and used the hood from a Revell 69 Daytona and used MM Firery Orange and a flat black base to simulate the Factory Color of Burnt Orange to complete. Defintely plan to buy more for stock and NASCAR builds.... 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle A resin body that a friend gave me. Used the AMT 69 Chevelle for a donor. The second build I put a vinyl top on using masking tape. 1968 Plymouth Belvedere another resin . didn't bother to open the hood but used spare parts from the AMT 69 GTX. US Army Jeep The Hogan's Hero Jeep kit. A nice diversion because I only had to use Olive Drab, Flat Black and Flat Aliminum.... 1956 Desoto Firedome Bought this kit and a another, 59 Dodge Adventurer, at a Farm Sale a few years ago. While my buddy was looking for a small tractor to cut his 4 acre yard, I was keeping a eye open for any kits. Found the two in a wooden basket with old cowboy boots and other odds and end. Thinking that no one else would care and pass over I kept a close eye and ear until bidding started. I was thinking $20 while the owner decided to bunch up a few more items to that basket and off the bidding went to the 40 and up range. Didn't win the bid but I did get with the buyer and offer $15 for both to which he gladly accepted and even threw in a free soda that my buddy had just come back from the concession stand with....that he bought to "sweeten" the deal. Just a old Johan Promo kit with tinted green windows and a plain bottom plate... 2016 Dodge Challenger R/T A coworker at the Dodge dealership gave me the kit because of lack of interest. Since I had just bought the real deal the 1st of the year......why not? The kit was the AMT 2009 Challenger. A little body work and mods to the grill and rear tail lights and the wheels/rims from the Revell 2013 Camaro (since they are more accurately represented for the 16 Challenger). I call it the Mini Dodge to the real Dodge.... The REAL Dodge.... Edited April 30, 2017 by satterwhite78

Hubert Rollins Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 All beautiful... especially the "real" Charger!!!
Snake45 Posted May 2, 2017 Posted May 2, 2017 I like the color on the Charger. I've been thinking of trying that combination on something myself. Good to know what it looks like, thanks!
