This is my version of the 1971 Dodge Charger kit by AMT. If you're interested, I also have a build thread that follows the build process.

A few years ago, I built a 2013 Dodge Charger as a replica of my daily driver. I selected the AMT kit to build as a companion to the 2013 Charger model. I find the evolution of automobile design an interesting subject, the changes in style and form fascinate me. So here's the "Side-by-Side".

 

Forty-two years and worlds apart.

The 2013 is actually a 1:24 model so it seems a little large in comparison.
