mikechevelle69 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) Have not built a model in a while getting close to being done with this Charger been lots of fun! Edited May 23, 2011 by mikechevelle69
mikechevelle69 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Posted May 23, 2011 thanks amigo here is the most recent pic as i start adding bare metal foil.....finally getting better with it tough stuff to use.
BOSWELL891 Posted May 23, 2011 Posted May 23, 2011 Very nice. Im working on the 68 charger kit. Is that color testors icy blue?
mikechevelle69 Posted May 23, 2011 Author Posted May 23, 2011 Very nice. Im working on the 68 charger kit. Is that color testors icy blue? Yes sir Icy Blue it is cool color little to much flake for my taste but i think it looks good.....i checked out your charger looking pretty sweet bro.
diymirage Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 thats a great looking car and the paint looks very good my only concern would be if someone forked out that kinda money for paint wouldnt it be on some keystones or cragars ? (or the story could be the paint ate the budget so magnum 500s it is)
mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) i think these wheels look pretty good....which set looks better? cragers, halibrand sprint or the stock magnum 500's Edited May 24, 2011 by mikechevelle69
Demon9115 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) i think these wheels look pretty good....which set looks better? cragers, halibrand sprint or the stock magnum 500's I like those wheels. Edited May 24, 2011 by Demon9115
mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) I definitely agree i think the halibrand sprint style looks the best the fill up they wheel wells and have a beefier tire. Edited May 24, 2011 by mikechevelle69
Ryan S. Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Nice looking Charger. I, too, like the Halibrand Sprint style wheels. They look the best and fill the wheel wells a little better.

mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 here is some more pics with the goodyears and sprint style rim i am really digging it!
diymirage Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 yup, those hallibrands are the perfect ballance between form and function those looke great on there
mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 yup, those hallibrands are the perfect ballance between form and function those looke great on there Agreed got to looking at it though and just had to drop the front and it looks a lot better.
BOSWELL891 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Yes sir Icy Blue it is cool color little to much flake for my taste but i think it looks good.....i checked out your charger looking pretty sweet bro. Thanks for the compliment. Its wierd how we are both building chargers that are icy blue lol
mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 Thanks for the compliment. Its wierd how we are both building chargers that are icy blue lol Yes sir it tripped me out i had bought the can less than a year ago to paint a 1969 chevelle but decided to have the guy who is painting my real 1:1 chevelle paint the model also. I think the Icy blue looks better in real life than the way it photographs.
bandit1 Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Thanks for the compliment. Its wierd how we are both building chargers that are icy blue lol some one once told me (my grandmother <GOD BLESS HER... she is not with us anymore) "GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!"
diymirage Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 Agreed got to looking at it though and just had to drop the front and it looks a lot better. i noticed the front end looked a bit high but i kinda liked it made it look like it was coming of the line the lowered front end makes a better static model though
mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 some one once told me (my grandmother <GOD BLESS HER... she is not with us anymore) "GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!" this is very true!
mikechevelle69 Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 i noticed the front end looked a bit high but i kinda liked it made it look like it was coming of the line the lowered front end makes a better static model though true i kinda like higher front stance...my pops has a real 67 camaro and it sits higher up front feels cool going down the street!
BOSWELL891 Posted May 25, 2011 Posted May 25, 2011 some one once told me (my grandmother <GOD BLESS HER... she is not with us anymore) "GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!" I totally agree with that!
