GTX Sportsman "Weekend Warrior"

[Reeves Racing]

This is my version of a MOPAR weekend warrior. A GTX with a big engine and slicks, representin for the good old Direct Connection parts source. (DC was to MOPAR what Ford Performance Parts is to FoMoCo.)

Revell kit with slicks and wheels traded out with a fellow modeler.

Paint is Dupli-Color including the stripes and the decals were some phantom ones I bought on eBay.

Great color choice

Great looking Weekend Warrior.

I'd think a Single 4bbl would work better tho.

Great work..

Yep, Has the perfect look and, feel for a weekend warrior. Ya can almost smell the burning rubber from it doing a burnout. Great job.

Oh yeah! I'm diggin this one Always thought the 70 was the most brutish looking of all Roadrunners. Especially with big slicks on the back.

Man o man, thanks for all the complements guys. This is one the oldest models I have. I originally built it at least 23 years ago. I just recently restored it. I didn't redo much on the chassis, engine or interior. I stripped off the original paint job (it had the same scheme as it has now) which was Testers enamel black and white with brush painted stripes and no decals. I changed the wheels and tires,added side windows, removed the stock exhaust system, added headers, scratched up some slapper bars and did a repaint.

Great looking car that's the types of builds I like . Something the average working man could afford .
