High Anxiety,Tuki Hess 64 Dodge

Doing another drag car in between the biggins' ,,,,using the Jo-Han 64 hardtop bashed with a Lindberg 64 sedan ,,,, pics to follow,,,,I've had the decals for awhile now ,,,let's see how this goes

Have fun!  Great Lindberg kits.  Errr, the stockers can be addictive.

..............started cleaning up the Jo-Han body,,adapted the Lindberg single headlight grille(cut the bumper off for a better fit) and did a tape up of the Lindberg interior and chassis pan ,,have to massage the door panels and extended the package tray which I figured I would have to do anyway going from sedan to hardtop.All the chrome will be stripped and hit with Revell Chrome

Nice work.  Curiosity got the better of me.  Will you use the “NASCAR” four barrel version?  If you’re not familiar with it, Arvid Svendsen’s nice article on HotRod.com has 92 pictures that might help.

Be curious to know who is making the decals for this car

Yeah,,single 4bbl,,,but not really the old bath tub Nascar type manifold,,,I'll have to use a wedge intake or something

You have my interest 

 

These old SS cars are my primary interest ( even though this is not an 'OLD ' SS car)

[Scott Eriksen]

Here's the decal sheet from STS.I'm going to make a slight concession with the rear tail light panel ,,,trying to use the Lindberg sedan panel on the Jo-Han hardtop won't fly and since the decal sheet does not have a section or wrap around carry over design to the back I will most likely just paint the light panel with the base color of Pearl White ,chrome the 3 tail light bezels and chrome the bumper

[Scott Eriksen]

At the bench watching the US Army on parade and...........on second thought,,,lol.......I cut the bumper off the tail panel and filled in the 3rd light ,,, initial filling,,,a bit more sanding ,I'll mask off the red  tail and glue the panel on and fill the joint at the rear quarter
