Steamboat Posted February 18, 2021 Share Posted February 18, 2021 This one is a Shelf of Doom build for my local club. It's been on the shelf in various forms for at least 20 years. I'm finally calling it done. Forgive the poor photography, that's still a work in progress. The only AMT kit parts remaining are the body, dash and some of the chrome. The chassis is from the Pro Street Firebird, stretched and narrowed to fit the Plymouth. The engine is a resin cast of the 5.7 Hemi from a Revell Charger. I opted for an A833 four-speed (with requisite pistol-grip) because I didn't have to modify the transmission tunnel to make it fit. Rear tires and the seats are resin clones of the Mickey Thompsons from the Pro Street Coronet. The roll cage is made of bits and pieces from my parts box. 3d printed parts include the valve covers, intake manifold, throttle body, K&N air filter, front wheel dust caps and the exhaust dumps.

Dennis Lacy Posted February 20, 2021 Share Posted February 20, 2021 So RAD! Definitely one of the coolest models I’ve seen built out of that old ‘41 Plymouth kit. Makes me miss the pro-street craze of the 80’s and early 90’s! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
