These are the only two I have built. I have (1) '67, (2) '68s, (3) '69s and (2) '70s (all different versions) to build. I like the '68 grille and the '70 tail panels the best.

What did you do to modify the Daytona chassis' back half?

Is the Daytona an MPC kit?

dodge_charger_roadster_concept_car_5.jpeThis is the original 1964 Dodge Charger Concept car.   Many, many years ago I built this car.  It is a little "long in the tooth" now and showing its age, but I dragged it out and took a couple of new pictures of it.ku60jkkIGNjJlQ5xqcLSrx7WMsO5W-ezGsRLrjDf4CpejepTmg3mdqQ1cDN_Xxk-DcQEKAZFXFAnbwhMu9jXRK3Q0-WJp3fzT1F6ptU8ixN7PtTY7US1CqjlM6kuW1Vi5AukDIWSYAdF42YwwUl392u6yGEv1XQ6

Excellent!  I was wondering if this one was ever done as a kit, or did you do the conversion all your self?

Actually nothing. The wheelwells were already big enough to take the meaty tires. (Barely) I believe it is a 2003 reissue of an AMT kit. This is the only rear view pic I have on my PC.

My most recent Charger...

What movie or TV show is that one from, Bill? (BTW, that photo could be mistaken for a real car.) 

Did you catch my satin black '69 above? That's the ERTL Deathproof diecast, which I saw on your website as I was researching what I'd just bought at the toy show. Had to hit it with a little Snake-Fu, of course.

Thanks, this was tribute to box artists. Don Greer did the art for MPC's City Slicker, with supplemental work by James Hood.

I did, the extra detailing really helps the old Charger - nicely done!  How did you remove the hood deco? Any time I do, I usually use alcohol with a final polishing to get rid of the outline, but that would have made the hood shiny.
