MPC 69 Cuda

[karbuildr]

This is not a bad little kit, fairly simple actually, but not a lot of detail. Two areas of the kit I ran into issues with. The front bumper doesn't sit right and tends to point a little downward. In addition, the headlight/grille area is way too large to fit in the opening and it took a lot of filing, sanding and constant fit checking to finally get it to fit properly. The color is House of Kolor Lime Time Pearl with House of Kolor's Klear. I managed to stuff a Hemi in it from the AMT 68 Roadrunner. Wheels and tires are by Pegasus.

Appealing Barracuda David. You did a fine job on correcting the front grille and that colour is gorgeous on this. That hemi fits nicely too. Well done and thanks for sharing. 

Cheers, 

David.??
