gtx6970 Posted January 8 Posted January 8 (edited) Painted this one a while back Simple rattle can duplicolor red . Slixx decals. On the recent MPC Challenger kit . Built pretty much box stock Fairly simple kit to build. The only mods I did was I widened the rear track width just a touch to pull the tires out closer to the edge of the body. Decals are designed for the Johan body so they don't truly follow the contours of the MPC body like they should. But it is what it is . I'm happy with it Edited January 8 by gtx6970 Revised for better pictures 10
gtx6970 Posted January 8 Author Posted January 8 (edited) Changed to better pictures. PS, I'll add here. Getting that rear spoiler on there AFTER its painted was tedious. I thought real hard to just leave it off Edited January 8 by gtx6970
Maurice Henderson Posted January 9 Posted January 9 Really nicely done..With me being born & raised in Chicago, these guys were my drag racing heroes..I don't know how many times I've seen them at US 131 or Cordova drag strip..Your paint is on point, I like the 3move to widen the rear slicks and the decals fall in place..Job well done!!! John Faconkas, Austin Coil & Pat Minik would be proud. 1
M W Elky Posted January 14 Posted January 14 Great looking build there . I find these challengers really fun to build. I made one of these a while back and had trouble with some of the white decals flaking off .
Zippi Posted January 23 Posted January 23 Nice looking build. I remember this drag car running a Bench Bend Raceway Park back in the day.
