Mopar - D Posted March 17 Author Share Posted March 17 Thanks JT, I may have to make this into a diorama. Still waiting on my Plymouth letters my friend that’s going to make them came down with shingles so I’m going to start working on the Cuda’s. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afx Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Truck looks great. I built a competition 'Cuda not long ago using the new tool 1/25 scale Revell kit. Look forward to your 'Cuda builds. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mopar - D Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Thanks JC do you have your competition Cuda posted I would like to see it. I’m trying to figure out all the roll bars they used. I’ve been able too make the front spoiler and brake air ducts. Been digging in my car parts boxes to find some parts. I’m going to be changing out the six pack carbs for a single 4 barrel. Here’s what the spoiler looks like so far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
afx Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Dan, the roll cage AAR used is one of the most complex I have built. Here is my build thread. I gathered a fair amount of reference on the cars so if I can be of help just ask. Edited March 19 by afx Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mopar - D Posted March 19 Author Share Posted March 19 Thanks JC your post is very interesting and helpful for my build. I’m going with the dark blue on both of cars. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
