Nxr Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Well it's 3 in one let's see how these builds go, I need some input as to what color late 70s Mississippi Hwy patrol used but I'm seeing mostly it was simple gloss gray, I got the decals ready and this new mpc kit is amazing, the 59 imperial color is rustoleum ocean mist I think it matches 50s colors well and man this was so cheap and good, I'd hate the rust cans 15 years ago but man now they improved, will probably use their paint on bodies as it's cheapest and best result without spending a ton. The PA state police is painted in testors gloss white and gloss green, I got wheels made will get to foiling this after a few beers..
espo Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I agree, a classic color for the Imperial. I'll be interested in how the CHP build goes also.
Nxr Posted November 4, 2020 Author Posted November 4, 2020 (edited) A little update more foiling to go this came out good! Edited November 4, 2020 by Nxr

Nxr Posted November 7, 2020 Author Posted November 7, 2020 Some more mock ups of the cruiser and got the wheels and continental kit done for the imperial, painted the Dodge into a light gray similar to what the Mississippi Hwy patrol used, getting closer to finish.
doorsovdoon Posted November 7, 2020 Posted November 7, 2020 looking really good. I'll have to buy another of those '70 Galaxies, they look so cool.
Nxr Posted November 9, 2020 Author Posted November 9, 2020 Added some of the little things to it I always go crazy on the antennas, only interior needed the Dodge will get some foil tonight but first to enjoy 80 degrees on November
Nxr Posted November 10, 2020 Author Posted November 10, 2020 Oh man I must admit I am liking this one, it needs interior as well and the under body needs the piping painted I mocked it up on 2 wheels, I opted for the continental kit. For having like "only" 3 parts for the whole kit it sure looks like it has 100s.
