I had the idea to build a custom Barracuda a few years ago. Now I finally finished it with costum head- and taillights and a set of scratch built wheels:

The grille was modified and flanked with amt ‘69 Corvair custom headlights.

Wheels are aluminium sleeves and low profile rubber from Scaleproduction and scratch built inserts.

I made custom taillights from red clear plastic and printed backings.

I placed a 3d printed Hellcat engine from Jay‘s Resins under the hood.

Cool custom there Oliver, I especially like the tail lights. Those graphics are a nice touch too. Well done.
