69 Cuda

[Railfreak78]

This is a 1969 Cuda from MPC from the late 80's. I needed something for my club meeting due to my monster truck being no where close to done. I cleaned it up and sprayed the main colors. This is my first time doing BMF and even did the gas cap, door handles, running lights, and Barracuda emblems. Most of this build was the BMF time. I slapped the rest together with an engine wash and have about 9 hours total into it. Enjoy!

Looks pretty good for only taking nine hours to build

Looks goon in it's own right- great for a rush job! Excellent foil work, I still struggle with that!

Oh, and welcome back, too!

Thanks for the compliments guys. I have to say I was very weary of trying BMF. I pulled out an old model book and read some tips on it. Outside of the BMF it actually felt nice to make a "back to basics" style build too. I think this came out pretty good from the score of this kit ( $5 bucks) to the end. I may go back and add details but over all I had no problems with fitment either. Also thanks David!

I like it!

BMF is a PITA, it is why so many of my builds are sitting around.

LOL, when I first scrolled down and saw this, I was like "I know he said it's his first time with BMF, but man that is terrible!". Then I scrolled down some more and saw the finished product.

I really like it!! You did a GREAT job on this one! I think the color looks very cool on it.

I have oone of those in the works! I need to pull it out and see if I can finish it in just a tad under 9 YEARS!!!

BTW! l almost forgot! Nice build on short notice!

Thanks again guys. It was fun to do a back to basics model but now that it's sitting I'm getting the bug to detail the engine and such
