1969 GTX

[Bronzekeg]

this is my 2nd go around with this kit. the previous build is about 35 years old. also pictured is the bronze color I hope to use except with a tan interior. as always c&c are welcome and thanks for looking.

The Yellow convertible looks great. What color did you use for the Charger?

My first thoughts were stated by espo! I'm curious about both paints, though. Beautiful colors, and nicely applied!

Ken looks like you had to tow your old GTX in from storage lol. Still looking good for being 35 years old! Looking forward to seeing what you do with the new one. By the way I’m also starting on a 71 GTX.

Recently finished that one. I’m curious, is your hood warped badly? Mine was a nightmare.

thanks David, years ago when building truck models I bought up every brand of bronze I could find. design master is the brand on the charger. I'm a big fan of browns.

the yellow was actually cream when built. it has yellowed with age. thanks for the input.

other than misting with dull coat I'm calling the basic interior done. I tested the bronze paint for the body and it bubbled with clear. so I'm stuck with plan B for that.

Nice interior Ken. I know how you feel with your paint bubbling up I had the same problem with my second coat on the Charger.

yea Dan I don't know what happened. I've decided to go with a red in place of bronze.

[Bronzekeg]

a quick mock up with the interior.

[Bronzekeg]

chassis has been started and the interior has been misted with dull coat.

Ken those stripes really tie these colors together. Very sharp looking.
