sardine challenger

[diymirage]

hey guys, i finally got her done

its called the sardine challenger because of the paintjob

i used a piece of old screendoor that i taped to the body and then spraypainted through

(stole the idea from a camaro i seen on here)

Looks a little Funkie but Cool..

I may have to try that .

Paint looks good.

BMF looks good.

Wheels look good.

Great looking Mopar..

[James W]

That paint job turned out great.

You can be proud.

What will you try next?

[Foxer]

That looks cool. Was the right choice of colors .. defiantly scaly!

there were a lot of firsts on this one, first custom paint job, first time using BMF, first time tinting windows

all togehter im pretty pleased with it

i was talking to my litle nephew the other day and we were thinking of building him a car with race stripes like that

other then that i have some projects im working on, a acura TSX with 2 engines, a VW bug pick up truck (front engine rear wheel drive)

and a little less ambitous, a 56 ford victoria which will be my very first gasser, it will have a blown 427 and wheels from a die cast dragster

thanks

i was first going to try a green and gold or something along those lines and try to make it into a really cool reptilian paintjob and call it snakebite

but then i decided on this because i always wanted to try shooting that gold with my airbrush

once it was done i showed the wifey and she was like "hey, looks like a sardine"

and that is how it became the sardine challenger

Looks good, and very different! Hard to believe all those "firsts"......especially the paint and BMF!

I've seen it done on RC bodies with Drywall tape, but it looks much better with the way you did it on that car!

[John Truby]

Interesting idea!! May have to try that myself someday.
