Dragfreak Posted January 26, 2013 Author Posted January 26, 2013 Thank you to everyone who left a comment!! as for the white bill boards i would like to use them on the car but i cant find the other cuda kit that has them
Dragfreak Posted January 30, 2013 Author Posted January 30, 2013 The hood came in from Lex's scale modeling and it looks good, it was very thick so i had to do alot of sanding just to get it to this point and i still have alot of sanding and fine tuning to get it to sit right but i should be fine i think the hood scales out to about a 6 or 7 inch cowl? anyways heres the pics
Dragfreak Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 well i did alot of sanding to get it to fit somewhat right but the fronts still alittle high. anyways i got the hood in primer and i love how this thing looks so far
Davewilly Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Looks very cool so far..cant wait to see more of it
Drake69 Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 Try Keith Marks for the '71 white billboard decals. He'll be your best source. http://public.fotki.com/mofobow/plymouth/
freakshow12 Posted February 2, 2013 Posted February 2, 2013 may I suggest cutting out the grille too. I did it on my panther pink convertible. I just used some mesh from a tamiya kit in behind and it looked pretty good. As for keith marks, I just talked to him this morning so he is around his computer to set u up with some decals
DPink Posted February 3, 2013 Posted February 3, 2013 I used to like the 70 hemi cuda and hate the 71, but after playing Forza Horizon, Ive come to love the 71
Dragfreak Posted February 4, 2013 Author Posted February 4, 2013 (edited) Thank you! i really appreciate the comments!! as for the white billboards im not shure what im going to do being that im only 14 and its winter time i dont have any yard work money coming in so money is a bit tight for me so i think ill probably stay with the kit black billboards. Eelco, your cuda looks sweet i like the pink alot! heres some pregress, worked on the interior a bit getting it to fit the tubs and finished some body work in the front with getting the huge seam completely filled Edited February 4, 2013 by Dragfreak
Dragfreak Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 small update, got some work done on the interior like the cage started and some tin work -jason
LacrosseBoss Posted February 7, 2013 Posted February 7, 2013 14!?!?!?! You're the man! I don't know if that's common knowledge around here since I'm "new" but I honestly wouldn't have guessed your age based on this work. Beautiful stuff. Glad to see the hobby has a bright future.
Dragfreak Posted February 7, 2013 Author Posted February 7, 2013 Thank you Mathew for your compliment!! i appreciate when people like my builds even though they might not come close to the the work that most of the other builders do on here jason
Dragfreak Posted February 11, 2013 Author Posted February 11, 2013 small update, got the tin work almost finished and some more done on the cage. Im not shure if ill do a 10 point cage but definately and 8 point.
vintagedragfan Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 excellent work Jason, looks like you have been doing it for years!
Dragfreak Posted February 11, 2013 Author Posted February 11, 2013 Thank you Bill!! i have been building for about 2-2 and a half years now, maybe one day my builds will be allmost as good as all of your builds!
Mooneyzs Posted February 11, 2013 Posted February 11, 2013 Jason ... nice work on this build. I am digging it and loving that cowl hood. Keep up the great work.
Dragfreak Posted February 12, 2013 Author Posted February 12, 2013 Thank you Chris much appreciated!!! got some more done on the cage
Dragfreak Posted February 12, 2013 Author Posted February 12, 2013 Thank you Fred and Carl I really appreciate comments from great builders like you guys!
Dragfreak Posted February 23, 2013 Author Posted February 23, 2013 small update, engine will either have an air cleaner, velocity stack, or air pan some more done on the interior filled the gao from the grill/fender
Dragfreak Posted February 24, 2013 Author Posted February 24, 2013 i got the holes from where the exhaust ended in the rear valence i think its called? anyways i also got the pin holes in the bottom of the hood filled, and filling gaps on the chassis. i still need to get the other tub finished before i can get some paint on the chassis
Dragfreak Posted February 24, 2013 Author Posted February 24, 2013 some more progress, started scratching up a kirkey race seat and drilled the valve covers for ignition wire. also sanded the chassis and removed the brake and fuel line that was molded in
