Dodge Monaco street beater

[rv1963]

Did this a long time ago, really fun build. I wanted a car that was very used and abused but still on the street as a daily driver. All comments welcome.

From the weathering, to the mismatched wheels, to the DD box on the front seat...I swear this was parked in my college student lot circa 1987.??

Thanks for all the comments guys.

As the saying goes " Looks like it has been ridden hard and put away wet". A term usually referring to a horse though. Realistic looking body damage and rust. May have even been a PD car at one time?

A well done "beater"!

[rv1963]

Thanks guys, could have been a retired PD car it does have a box of donuts on the front seat, Lol.

Great job. My hats off to anyone that can make plastic look like rusted metal like you did!

Love the realistic rust. Something I’m still learning to do.  Sometimes I think it’s harder to do a beat up vehicle than a show car.

So did you have a 1:1 that this was based on. If not, that's some excellent creativity right there! Very nice!

Thanks Scott, thanks Paul, no 1 to 1 just came from my warped little mind, lol. Thanks to everybody who commented on this build, since it has received over 500 views I  am going to do Wip starting soon showing what and how I do my street beaters cars should be a fun build.
