COLOR ME GONE 1965 AWB DODGE

[M W Elky]

This is out of the box with chuck boener decals which I think the shade blue isn’t dark enough at least for my liking. I would really like to have a set of decals without the blue . Overall it looks good on the shelf .

A great build of a Historic NHRA Legend

Another very nice one Mike of a very short-lived car that morphed into the Gary Dyer/ Mr. Norm's Grand-Spaulding match racer. We're all the blue areas on the body (including the roof?) decals or did you paint them to match the blue of the Color-Me-Gone door decals? Whether painted or decaled, I'm impressed with how neat this all came together, not an easy looking decal task even if just the red pinstripes. 

I have three of these AWB Dodge kits along with the last AWB Plymouth that was in my stash on my bench now proceeding as a very slow production line. A plumbing issue in our home (hot water line slab leak 😖😫) shut my line down for the last month but I'm just now cranking it up and hope to have some of these builds to post in the coming weeks.

Yea John all the blue are decals they went on real nice and didn’t tear but the shade of blue doesn’t match the testors dark blue enamel that I have used on my other color me gone cars . It looks better in photos than in person however with the red pin stripes it’s probably the only way . I’m right with you on house projects I have a lot of outdoor construction projects to finish before winter

Looks like it's ready to do battle. Well played Sir.

I almost forgot the story I got was that Chrysler took it away from Roger for doing to many bumper dragging wheel stands after they were warned not to .
