MPC barracuda 1969.

[happy grumpy]

A simple kit, not much details but it builds to a nice shelve model. Custom mix Tamiya acrylics with the usual TS13 clear. I prefer the 70 cuda but I still like that body style enough to build one.

thanks for looking.

Very clean build and really looks the part. Well done and model on!

Where did you get the stripe decals, and were there also white ones?

[happy grumpy]

The decals were included in the kit . I think there were also white stripes.

Very nice. Exemplifies the impact of a clean, simple build. Love the painted steel and dog dishes.

Great looking paint finish and your setting always compliments your builds. The clean looking trim and side stripe look good.

My kit did not have the stock stripe decals. You wouldn't want to get rid of those white stripes, would you?

Rich, I will try to find the leftovers from that decal sheet, if the white stripes are on it , I'll let you know, I'll check tonight when I'm back from work.

Very nice Barracuda Mario.  Those Goodyear white letter tires give a nice added look to the car.  Another great one Mario.

[Classicgas]

Well done. A new tool is badly needed.

Thanks Bob, I agree, those are the best for cars from that era.

Thanks Lee. I couldn't agree more, I would love to see Moebius take it on.

Thanks Bill, Yes the grille is from the kit, I only used black wash on it. The wheels come from Fireball and the tires from the spare box.

Very beautiful diorama and car. I love the background. It looks like it is from a 1960s movie!
