1964 Dodge 330 Hemi Street Car.

[Platerpants]

Ok i should be getting the lindberg maverick 330 in the mail sometime this week or early next week by the 22nd. Starting the planning early. Its gonna be Plum Crazy with the only decals being used is the 426 Hemi hood decals. Ill save the maverick ones for something else. But im gonna need some input on interior color im thinking white ith the purple exterior. maybe some links on info for the 330s. could i use polara info?

.

Please leave your info and thoughs in the comments thank you. Oh yah im a quick builder and the most detail i have access to do for engines is engine wire. But schools starting in 2 weeks or so so this may actually turn into a spare time build.

SO I KEEP THE MAVERICK STYLE WHEELS AND DO THIS(SORRY FOR MY POOR PAINT SKILLS)

My opinion only, build it the way YOU like it.

Me personally I don't think the car looks all that good in that color, darker wheels might help, but I doubt it

[Platerpants]

see its only plum cuz thats the only color i have left and my hobby funds are back at 0

I think maybe add some white to it. Like the lettering on the hood, and maybe add some stripes of some sort. I like the color, but just looks too plain to me in that format. Just a critique. Model looks like a good build from what I can tell.

white interior

[espo]

I have allways liked the Plum Crazy '69 Road Runners , and I know that Dodge had the same thing with another name. White interior might be a good idea in that at that time most of these cars had black interiors. Even in scale that starts to make the model look very dark. I think like Bill said, do what you like and can afford at this time. The lighter colored wheels or mags might help make the model standout more. Please post pictures and good luck with your build.

got dick landy dart wheels and the engine block and trans are painted.

I like your idea of the white interior. I think it would "POP" with the exterior color your going to use.

[B.DougBeck]

Plum Crazy was a 1970 Dodge color, paint code FC7. The Plymouth color was In-violet paint code 5182LM.

I think you can put any color on the 64 Dodges you want and they still look great!

thanks. its a break from black interiors and blue cars.

[Platerpants]

just a little update. gold trim in the white interior. its gonna have a black undercarriage with some purple over spray. oh yah and the body is in the process of getting painted but its a bit cool to paint.

GREAT START!!!

[Platerpants]

wired the engine(failed major time) and painted the body all the way. although its gonna be a street car its got the roll cage.

[slusher]

l also agree the white interior will work great with plum crazy. ...

yes i think it will but im having problems with the front suspension it seems to be leaning heavier to the driver side for some reason i tryed to make sure it was flat when i installed it. this isnt the first linberg kit ive had issues with

[Platerpants]

ok so i did a mock build just to give me and you an idea of how it will look but of course my phone takes crummy photos you can barely read the 426 hemi hood lettering. oh yah and i mixed up a little steel paint and trimmed the edge of the hood scoop. any ideas tell me.

[Platerpants]

another mock build with a mirror show the nascar exhaust tips i have chosen to put on this. also the finished interior. still trying to figure out a way to liven it up. oh and i spent 2 or 3 hours putting chrome on. it now has a dodge window decal and a 2010 dodge logo under the hood. still gotta make some license plates for it. again any suggestions are considered.

[Platerpants]

did some more engine area work. its got an msd system now and wires going from the trunk(battery) to the starter and MSD conrtols. oh and i used my moms camera to get a picture of the details. now if only i could right msd on the red box.

[Platerpants]

i know the engine detail is novice but its a start this will probably be the only one of my models ever to recieve a msd system(even though all i did was make a red box instead of put the msd logos on it

We all have to start somewhere. Just keep it up and you WILL only get better.

Color combo is looking much better btw,

Thanks I like the color combo to the gold trim in the interior looks cool with it too.
