Plastic_Passion Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 I really want to build an aar. But I want the 72 style taillights. Who's got some cuda's to show off?
afx Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Revell has announced a new 1/25 scale AAR kit. However I grafted on the old 1/24 scale parts to the new tool 1/25 scale kit to create my AAR. Built it as a Trans-Am car so I didn't fabricate the specific street exhaust.

afx Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Here again I grafted on 1/24 scale parts to the new tool 1/25 scale Revell kit to create a '71 Baracuda.
fivesuns Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 I like Mopars and I like TAs. That is a great looking car.

I sectioned the grille between the headlights and shaped it to fit the '70 Cuda body. Also modified the lower valence and grafted it on. The taillights are also from the '71 kit.

W-409 Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) I did a Glue Bomb restoration on Jo-Han '71 Barracuda a few years ago... I have another one waiting for a similar treatment. This one is a Pro Stock car, but the other one should represent a Super Stocker when I get to it. Edited January 4, 2019 by W-409
tubbs Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 here is one of mine, started a while ago, maybe it will find its way back to the bench in 2019.
