Great looking Dart there James, we had these in Australia under the Chrysler Valiant format. The hopped up version was called a Pacer which raced in the ATCC. Your model looks great in that colour and vinyl top. Detail is very good too. Well done. 

Cheers,

Probably one of the nicest examples of this kit that I’ve seen in a while.

For some reason, every one seems to want to butcher this kit.

It’s weird, but it seems that if it hasn’t been turned into a drag car, gasser, or some sort of street freak, it’s usually painted in some nauseating color.

This is very tastefully done!!

An absolute beauty! Looks great as a "real world" example. I remember these cars well. I owned a '69 Dart GT with 318, 2bbl., automatic. Mine was dark green. I'll look back on this thread when I get ready to build my replica.

Beautiful looking colors and finish. Very cleanly detailed trim and engine. There was a time when it was easier to make monthly payments on a new car that could handle just about anything out there and had a 5/50k warranty for when you broke it. 

Great days indeed, the muscle car era!  Well put Espo.

James it has already been said by our fiends on this site but I must echo wonderful work and your overspray on the chassis is spot on!  Gold looks great on those Mopar A bodies.  I’m doing a gold Duster street machine now (along with 6 other projects!). No wonder I never finish anything huh?!

Reminds me of when I was thick of hair and thin of waste, unlike now.
