Hayden Proffitt 1964 Plymouth Max wedge car

[gtx6970]

I have this one on the bench and would like to take this one all the way to the finish line

 

BUT, I need the Bite By Casler decal on the rear quarter panels and I think is Jardene Headers on the front fender dogleg 

 

Anyone have a source ? . I've gone thru every decal sheet I have and came up empty 

 

The decal sheet I am using is 'technically' for the 64 Hemi car, and the graphics are different

I love the project, have thought of this one in the past but just haven't done.  It looks great and can't wait to see the finished product.  Slixx has Casler on the Drag-On Lady 65 Belvedere decal sheet and Jardine is on the Don Nicholson Maverick sheet.  I hope this helps.

Thanks, I have the Shahan sheet.  Planning to to her 68 Dart down the road a bit 

 

But not the Dyno Don Maverick

 

I may have to do without that one 

 

Im gathering parts mode to do the Proffitt car . Im building the blue interior bench seat max wedge car 

[Altered Ego]

This will be an awesome build, can't wait to see it finished.

many many thanks

 

I'm really feeling this one . And having built a few of these kits before I feel comfortable should be no issues along the trip( fingers crossed ) 

 

So am trying to stay focused on this one to the finish line 

 

Couldnt find a bench seat. So, making my own . Plus I have some Scale MotorSports decals to replicate the seat pattern pretty close I think

Interior color  is Testors Nassau Blue and I think is dead on the original ( or at least close for my shelf )

My first attempt at using scale motorsports

 

Painted the seat inserts silver 

Then decal over that.

 

I like it

Got the chassis done this morning.

Kit Dana rear axle ( yes I know it's wrong for the year) 

 

Kit rear tires. Parts box fronts.

Johan chome reverse rims round out the rolling stock

 

So decided to do a stance ck.

So far.

So good.

 

Ps....the chassis for the lindberg 64 dodge is different from the 64 plymouth.....just sayin. LoL

Looking good Bill. Should have it all buttoned up real soon.

Progress 

 

Interior and chassis both done.

Front bench seat is made from a second rear seat. Back filled and then split in the middle.

I have to detail the engine a little 

And BMF the body.

Then start final assy.

I'm pumped.

I've wanted to do this car for a while now

This is a really nice looking interior especially the weave pattern on the seats . Also great color match on the blue . Nice flawless black paint job 

[gtx6970]

Seats are tamiya Nassau blue.

Seat pattern is scale motorsports decals

 

I'm super happy with how it's turning out...so far

Looking great, I didn't know they drove Plymouths in 1964, I thought it was just Chevy's.  That blue and black looks great together! 

[gtx6970]

Getting closer 

 

I have a feeling the BMF i have. Is old.

 

Tough to cut and get to snug down was a pain

Nice job Bill, very cool car, what's cooler than a bench seat car powered by a big block engine? 😊

[gtx6970]

Engine is done.

Carbs by fireball ( they are nice) 

Prewired dist by Mad modeling

 

Im undecided if I want to add some fuel lines........maybe.
