They are such beautiful kits that enjoyment can be had, just looking at the parts on the trees! I would probably build the 356, first. Mine's exactly the same boxing as yours. Please do a build thread on it when you get around to it. I would love to see another one of these in the works.🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cobraman Posted January 17, 2023 Share Posted January 17, 2023 I built one of Pinto's kits (not this one ) last year. It was pretty well done. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely a high-effort kit. Nice that he supplies PE parts, decals, two sets of all the clear parts, etc. A few years back, I wouldn't even have attempted anything resin.

stitchdup Posted January 18, 2023 Share Posted January 18, 2023 some tamiya paints arrived today, i only needed 2 but its not worth putting 2 in the box so i got some extras while i was there. I dont use tamiya very often but they are handy to have on hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Eh? Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 KIJIJI strikes two days in a row! LOL Iwata/NEO CN, sprayout pot and Iwata Ninja compressor all for $125 ($93 US). The prior owner had left paint in the bowl for ???? long. Most parts came clean after many ultrasonic cleaner cycles. The paint in the airbrush body was too stubborn. So the removed nozzle and airbrush body are in the prescription bottle which is filled with Medea airbrush cleaner. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only thing I'm not ecstatic about is his non-wire wheels and tires are molded in one piece...which I'll be changing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doorsovdoon Posted January 19, 2023 Share Posted January 19, 2023 (edited) Found an original annual of the 1968 MPC Charger, there was also a 1969 annual in the box too along with most, if not all of the parts for both! Looks like they've been partially started on, though most of the parts are still on the sprues, so that's good! Will be interesting to compare them alongside the butchered country Charger!
