Hmm, see they've skipped the black fields for the HEMI hood billboards this time.  Makes a bit of sense, because even with a firehose application of solvent, a bit of bunching was inevitable at the corners.

The model does appreciate a substitution of 'Cuda Rallyes and lettered tires...

Taking a page from the MPC playbook with the typography on the cover!  Looks good, will be a great one to build. 

Not sure if anyone else remembers Tim Boyd's SA (or was it MCM?) article on building this kit and the few mods needed to get everything all lined up - I recall moving the rear axle, for example. 

If that rings a bell and you can post the Volume and Issue date, that would be great!

I guess if you have a bottle of Panther Pink laying around this is the kit to use it on!

I still have a few of the old Model Master spray bombs of the stuff. I was planning on testing one out on a Monogram '70 Challenger TA kit I'm building.

Is there such a thing as having too many FM3 Mopars on your shelf?

I wish I knew about that article. No wonder my 68 looked kinda weird. Rear track seemed narrow too
