Sometimes you just need a H.U.G.

Sometimes you just need to build a slump buster. This kit was languishing in my stash for decades. I've used this kit in the past as a base for other cars but never built it as the Hemi Under Glass.

Very simple  (and inaccurate) kit but it was fun to build. Took less than a week. Not highly detailed at all but I did put an injected 426 in the back as the kit engine is completely wrong. 

Tamiya gold and gloss black  along with Slixx decals completed the body. I think it will look good in the back of the showcase.😛

Someday I might put a 1/25 scale Bob Riggle in the seat and take some wheelie photos!As usual , the large pictures on the forum show all the flaws that my ancient eyes don't pick up!

Cool build

 

I just did the same car a month or so ago

 

No drag car builders collection is complete without the HUG in it

Great build of a Historic NHRA Wheel Stander

Where did you get the injected 426 from? Some of my future projects are the '66 H.U.G. and converting the current H.U.G. kit into the '68 version, one with an injected 426 and one with a supercharged 426. (I have 4 of the misboxed MPC 38418 kits in my stash)

Nice “Slump Buster” Walter…while this kit is pretty simple it looks good when built.  Clean build!😎
