1968 Bullitt Charger

[Guest Mustang3.8]

Hey, y'all.

I figured since I'll be doin' the '68 Bullitt Mustang for DukeFan69's Summer of '69 build, I thought I'd build the Charger as well. I'll be using Revell's Special Edition Charger. I've painted the car in Testor's Gloss black, and Krylon Fusion flat black texture for the viynal roof. It will have a 440. I will be using rims from a '69 Dart. I will be putting alot of effort into this build as I'm dedicating it to my good friend DukeFan69. Here's a pic of the 1:1 movie car.

Kevin- Great start so far on your project im working on the "Bullitt" car as well. Instead of using the kits body i would go with a body shell from a Revell 69 Charger because it has the molded-in vinyl top. As for the paint goes Valspar has a great gloss black paint which you can find at Lowe's and for the vinyl top use Rust-Oleum "Textured" Black which has a great texture especially for a vinyl top. Note if youre using a 69 body fill the side marker lights and use the 68 rear facia & bumpers. I hope to see some pics of youre build.

Thanks, guys.

LSU fan, I've already painted the '68 body, plus the only '69 body I have has had a part of the viynal roof sanded off. (failed General Lee project. Anybody need a spare '69 Charger body ?)

Nick, yeah a link to the Summer of '69 build would be great. I'll try and get some pics up tonight.
