sak Posted April 22, 2024 Posted April 22, 2024 Day off so finished this MPC 1971 roadrunner. Winchester gray. Fireball wheels. Made the front wheels steer-able. Not a very enjoyable kit to build but I am happy with it. 17
satterwhite78 Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 I have a 71 and a 72 that I plan to start on soon.....I truly hope they turn out as Sharp and Great as yours! Gorgeous!
Chinacar Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 Soooo clean. The steerable wheels make such a big difference. Quote

Appreciate the compliments. I have been buying my paint from " Scale-finishes". I really like them and they are sold as base-coat or single stage. Have not tried the single stage yet.
thatz4u Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 looks real, well done,.....I'm just finishing mine this week...
Bainford Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 Great looking Roadrunner. Nice colour, and I love the understated style. All round great build, I love it! Now, I just wish Fireball would do something about those dog dish hubcaps.
happy grumpy Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 I have a sweet spot for these, having own one many years ago. I like the color , super clean.
espo Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 The paint finish looks nice and smooth. The subtle color and lack of RR markings give it the sleeper look. Like the paint wheels and dog dishes the white letter Good Years are the only give away.
Dragonhawk1066 Posted April 23, 2024 Posted April 23, 2024 Great looking Road Runner! Winchester Gray might be my favorite Mopar color, and those Fireball wheels look great on there!
