skymnky721 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Well happy spring to all,,,finished up Revells 68" Hemi Dart,,cool kit,,Revell does a good job on the mtr in this,,but of course,,I have to put my touch on it. I wanted something sticking out of the hood,,duel carbs,,hi-rise,,blower,,somethin in there,,added x-tra roll bar in front,added some basic wiring,plumbing. other than that just the basic kit. Can sprayed testors qukdry enamel, hand painted rest. I did have probs with the rear window fit,,if I lined it up even at the top+bottom,,there was a huge gap on the sides relative to the c-pillars,,bizarre,,so I put it in, with the bottom "Vented" similar to a shelby GT racer rear window vent type. All in all,,it turned out fair. But good enough for my shelf! Keep up the great works here on MCM. S ` Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Rusty,,yea Im kindof bored with just chrome+ silver all the time on trimwork,,so I paint some of the trim instead. Sure its not "correct" but that has never been a goal for me ,,just experimenting w/colors is fun. Thanks for lookin! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zippi Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Good looking old school drag car. Color looks good and that's a lot of muscle on the business end. Nice build. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skymnky721 Posted March 11, 2022 Author Share Posted March 11, 2022 (edited) Thanks folks,,I wish the kit had come w/wheelie bars,,I didnt have any x-tras in the stash box otherwise I would have put on wheelie bars and a parachute. There was also supplied in the kit 2 headrest lookin "thingees" that I made headrest with. And there was no mention or diagrams on the instructions about them,,so,,, I just made do. They worked pretty well. Thnx for the kind words ! Edited March 11, 2022 by skymnky721 typo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
