MrObsessive Posted February 28, 2013 Share Posted February 28, 2013 Very Sharp! The subtle weathering looks really good! I have this kit------in fact this is the first model I ever won on eBay 11 years ago. I keep seeing it occasionally, and I'm tempted to build (actually rebuild) it and stick a 426 Hemi in it!

Harry P. Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'm pretty sure the windshield surrounds were black rubber and not chrome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gluhead Posted March 2, 2013 Share Posted March 2, 2013 I think it's pretty cool, regardless of Harry's nitpick. Besides, they don't look chrome to me...just sun baked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
72 Charger Posted March 2, 2013 Author Share Posted March 2, 2013 I'm pretty sure the windshield surrounds were black rubber and not chrome. Well Ive just looked at the pics and harry is sort of right they should be black rubber but I dont see any chrome trim !!! And I just spotted the indicater is missing from the drivers side!

Kodiak Island Modeler Posted March 3, 2013 Share Posted March 3, 2013 Very Sharp! The subtle weathering looks really good! I have this kit------in fact this is the first model I ever won on eBay 11 years ago. I keep seeing it occasionally, and I'm tempted to build (actually rebuild) it and stick a 426 Hemi in it! That would rock. I made the engine in it look more like a 340 6pack, but more muscle would really be cool. Doobie you did a very nice job on yours.
