Moebius AWB Mopar Assembly Line - Lee Smith Car

[papajohn97]

It's been ages since I posted anything here in the way of drag car builds, hoping this report on my summer project, a "Moebius AWB Mopar Assembly Line", will make up for my lack of posted builds. I'll never catch up with Mike "Building the Covers" Elky (who will!?!) but this five kit build is new personal record for me. This assembly line consisted of the last AWB '65 Plymouth that was in my stash and four of the new AWB '65 Dodges. As always for me, decal availability drove my picks. Here's my latest AWB fleet:

Here are some picks of the '65 AWB Plymouth A/FX Lee Smith car below, I'll post the others on separate postings. Decals were from Fremont Racing Specialties (thank you Joe Curtis!), I airbrushed ScaleFinishes Plymouth Dark Turquoise Metallic base lacquer over Tamiya Pure White lacquer, it's more green than turquoise but I like the color with these decals. Some Detail Master parts and wiring/ fuel lines and Gopher racing harnesses were added, otherwise OOB.

I have really enjoyed checking out your builds. As a kid I was fascinated by the altered wheelbase MOPARS. I did build one from a 64 Dodge and in my mind's eye it looked pretty good, but I am sure it was pretty crude compared to yours.

Really enjoyed looking at your recent projects. I mainly build circle track stuff, but after seeing all the nice Moebius AWB cars on the forum lately, think I need to get one or two.
