1959scudetto Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Back in 1984, I bought a JoHan 1964 Dodge Super Stock* (picture is from the internet), but didn't want to make it a quartermile racer. So I built some sort of stock version, swapping the wheels with some found in my parts box (probably from amt) - spray-painted with leftover rattle cans - chrome trim is silver paint: Here's the class of '64: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thatz4u Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Helmut, all are very nice, very well done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisc63 Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Nice collection. I really like the unusual color scheme you put on the Dodge, especially the darker shade of green; really beautiful. I have to say, though, for me your 64 Mercury takes "Best In Show". Is that the AMT Marauder kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 I like the wheels, it changes the look from grocery getter to a decent looking muscle car with that body style. Cool colour too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool colour too. Thank you Gareth, the wheels came from the parts box, and the colors were leftover rattle cans. I've been inspired for the side-stripe by the picture on the kit box - and then I used that paint for the roof also... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlie8575 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Interesting treatment on the Dodge. Looks very much like a high school kid's car from the '70s. Nice job on that. Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiger89 Posted April 23, 2021 Share Posted April 23, 2021 Nice, especially the photo of the '64s lined up. I still use Bare Metal Foil as little as necessary, especially with Molotow out now. Tolle Arbeit, Helmut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
