martinfan5 Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 These are my first two Lindberg Chargers finished, five more awaiting decals ,As of now, Neither DPS or Phoenix PD use Dodge Chargers , so these are what if builds These where out of the box stock, other then adding a radar unit and gun to the DPS charger, and made a better laptop mount. Decals are from bill bozo.
my80malibu Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Those are absolutley wonderful. I would not want to get locked up in one of those. On A seperate note at work we are supposed to be seeing the new caprice police car in August
Danno Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Very nice builds, Johnathon! Nothing at all wrong with phantoms; if either PPD or DPS ran Chargers, that's what they would look like. And you can't beat those Billbozo decals, can you? Bring those out to the GoodGuys 14th Southwest Nationals November 18-20, 2011. And, on another note, you should check out the local clubs, Moonlight Modelers and Cactus Car Modelers. See www.Moonlightmodelers.com. Your Chargers would fit right in with our September 2011 monthly contest theme: "9-11 9-1-1." Come join us! Hope to see/meet you.
Agent G Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Looking good! I love those Bozo decals! With the demise of the CVPI, I can only imagine that those Dodges could be a reality soon. I really want to see the new Caprice, anything based on the Holden is okiedokie in my book. Hey Danno, keep reminding me about the SW Nats. in November. I will definately plan on driving there this year. G
Danno Posted May 5, 2011 Posted May 5, 2011 Hey Danno, keep reminding me about the SW Nats. in November. I will definately plan on driving there this year. G Will do! Already looking forward to it! Bring your models and make it a weekend. Besides the GoodGuys Model Car and Pedal Car show, we gather about 2500 1:1 rods & customs to help fill the time and provide inspiration for the modelers. And, if you're in town over that Saturday night, you've got to make the trek to the Pavilions Rock-n-Roll McDonalds Show and Shine ~ said to be the biggest, longest running, weekly free car show in the country and it happens every Saturday night. There'll be over a thousand cars on display there, too. One other thing ... same neighborhood ... Roger Penske's Motorsports Museum. Then there's our Moonlight Modelers Club meeting that Saturday night, to which you're both invited and welcome! Sorry, not much going on around here. C'mon down!

Goodtimes,Goodweather,Goodguys,November is the place to be in Phoenix. Cause it's already warming up here in the Valley.And soon we will be seeing People spontaneously combusting.

Agent G Posted May 6, 2011 Posted May 6, 2011 Ok then I will plan that weekend in Phoenix! Just over 90 here today, that's the warmest yet. It's taking it's time in heating up, which usually means one scorcher of a summer. Hey Martinfan - I have a couple of questions to ask regarding the cars you built. When I get home I'll PM you, ok? G
martinfan5 Posted May 6, 2011 Author Posted May 6, 2011 (edited) I have heard about the Goodguys on the radio, never thought about it though, If I am able to I will. AgentG- responded to your message. For some reason I think the Chargers look better as a slick top then with a bar on the roof, well I didn't build the DPS Charger as a slick top , the light bar had fallen off. So I just took the pics with it off. I love billbozo decals, they are so easy to work with and the artwork is top notch. Edited May 6, 2011 by martinfan5
charlie8575 Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 Nice builds. And, given conditions in the police car market, as Dan stated, a plausible "what if." Charlie Larkin
Rob Hall Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 (edited) Dodge is bringing out a police package for the '11 eventually..that would be cool to see in a model. If Lindberg does it, it would be delayed 5 years, maybe Revell can do an '11 Charger by 2013.. Edited May 7, 2011 by Rob Hall
