doorsovdoon Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 I can't help but love this kit. Deck stripe is from the Revell '68 Charger, I just split it down the centre and closed it up to look more like the '69 stripe. Grille inserts are mostly out of the box but trimmed down using some styrene for the chrome trim line. Thanks, guys, for checking in to WIP on this, too many mods to list here so here's some pics:) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mustang1989 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 For a kit like this it sure turned out a winner Gareth. You sure know how to make these old kits shine like a diamond man. Just beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slusher Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Fantastic Charger! I sure enjoyed what big you build it my friend! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bisc63 Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 I like these difficult kits to a degree as well, they make us stretch those basic modeling skills. This one came out very nice, and the red interior and stripe really wake up a white car. Your chassis work is notable, and I always enjoy watching your builds come together. Well done!

Yeah, I love red and white combos. The main reason I chose white really is because I had one more tail stripe left over from one of the three on the decal sheet in the '68 Revell Charger kit. 11 hours ago, Spottedlaurel said: Another great job Gareth!

Good thing you enjoy all the fabrication you do using this kit. Thanks Dave. Yes, it has to be something you enjoy doing for sure. I have an old issue of the '64 Impala I want to "go to town on" so look out for that. No fit issues with that kit if I remember from last time I built one, so half the battle already won there👍 2 hours ago, Classicgas said: Nicest amt 69 I've seen. Thanks mate. Hopefully Round2 is watching and think "Hmm, maybe we could do something with this kit" We can only wish, hu? ..well, I do anyway, haha.
