Quiet Eric Posted yesterday at 01:49 AM Posted yesterday at 01:49 AM (edited) I shared these in the mock up thread, but now the real work starts. I was initially just going to do nice paint jobs on them and build mostly out of the box, but I couldn't leave them at that. The '70 is an original MPC with wheels and tires from Mean Machine. The '68 is the new "Craftsman Plus" kit with a standard grill from Iceman and wheels from Fireball. I'm using the AMT '69 Cutlass chassis for both of these and also have a pair of engines on the way from Texas 3d Customs. Each took a little bit of work at the rear wheel wells and the rear quarter panels to fit but I'm pretty happy with the match up. I need to get the stance on both up a little and work on the track width. Even the firewall is a good fit on both with minimal work. The '70 will be black with a black interior and maybe a black vinyl top, while the '68 will be Verdoro green with Ivy interior. Edited yesterday at 02:00 AM by Quiet Eric 5
