1972 Challenger parts needed!

[usmc_vette1984]

I bought the 1973 Challenger model kit and I must say I’m…disappointed. It doesn’t seem like it’s anywhere near accurate in its detailing, but I digress. 
 

I'm looking to build a 1972 Challenger, almost 1:1 to the real one I’m building. That being said, does anyone make a flat hood for the Challenger in 1:24? I’m thinking the 1970 Challenger kit will work as a donor for the chassis and interior, but my real one has a flat standard hood.

Harts Parts has a lot of Mopar pieces in resin. Very good to deal with.

Awesome! They have the parts I can use. 
 

same question, different car: 1972 Cuda. Again, think I can get away with using a ‘71 donor, but need the grill, tail, and bumpers.

Which Challenger kit did you buy?

It's not the Lindberg Kit, is it?

It’s not the Lindberg; it starts with an A…it’s upstairs at the moment, but here’s the listing.

I'll second that!

Just looked at Harts Parts site and he has several Challenger flat hoods for AMT and Revell.

Arii.

1970's Japanese Motorized kit. The Body shell may be accurate, but nothing else is. 

Nothing from Hart's Parts will fit. I'd start out with a different kit.

Folks here can give you advice about where to start for a 1972.

Good Luck.

Since you're using the 1/24 scale Arii kit the Monogram T/A kit is probably your best bet for donor parts. That kit has a flat hood for the custom version but it has a hole cut in it for the tunnel ram intake. You might be able to use the T/A hood to cut a patch panel from. Here's a pic I found of the flat hood.
