FASTBACK340 Posted March 4, 2011 Posted March 4, 2011 lol the fender tag is painted body color, so it blends in witht he body, thats why we cant see it That's the kind of smart-*ss answer I'd make! Good one....
Bruno Posted March 5, 2011 Author Posted March 5, 2011 Thanks everyone! Very well done Bruno! How did you like the resin kit? What problems did you have with it? It's a nice kit, lots of flash to clean and some minor imperfections, which can easily be fixed with some putty. I guess that's normal for a resin body, but I can't compare with others because that's my first resin build. The problems I had with it, I believe are mostly caused by my inexperience with resin kits, and the fact that I used another kit instead of the one I was supposed to use as a donor kit.
Bruno Posted March 5, 2011 Author Posted March 5, 2011 That is sooooo coooolll !! Very nice !!! What paint did you use ?? Thanks! The paint I used is automotive waterborne basecoat and automotive urethane 2 part clearcoat. The color is a Harley Davidson code (can't remember the code...). It's actually the same paint I used on my Tommy Ivo Dragster build, except I used a gray primer on the dragster, and a white primer on the Dart.
caine440 Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Outstanding build! A very underestimated Mopar. Great power to weight and it could surprise a lot of the heavy hitter of the time. Very nice job!
kelson Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 A real stunner!think this is the first time i've seen one built up and shown on the forum.
brett Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 What to add? not much that hasnt been said I think, stunning build mate!
Janne Herajärvi Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Very nice, you dont see too often these Swingers
Alan Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Everything needed is available in styrene, with the exeption of a trunk lid which is available in resin. MPC LA Dart, AMT 71 Duster, Revell 68 or 69 Dart for rear quarters and chassis interior etc.
RandyB. Posted November 13, 2012 Posted November 13, 2012 Very nice work indeed Bruno. It's nice to see one of these. Wish Revell would come out with this kit or a Dodge Demon.
realgone58 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Beautiful! I plan to build one of these as well.
PistonDog Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 love the Dart!!!!! Manufacturer's need to look at your model to help convince them to make a styrene kit!!!!
caine440 Posted November 14, 2012 Posted November 14, 2012 Is the front grille and bumpers on th LA Dart stock? I have been think of converting one but by the time I add up everything I need to get it is close to the price of the R&R resin kit on ebay.
