I thought this was a 70, but I've since discovered it's a 69 with this grille.

This is the Fast & Furious 70 Charger kit (A rebox of the General Lee kit...so I'm told)

I bought it on eBay for £9. The kit blower is dreadful, so I bought a pewter blower and scoop. I added a toothed belt and alu pulleys.

It has a little bit of photoetch under the hood and I flocked the interior red to connect to the accents on the engine and roll cage.

Wheels are by Aoshima and the tyres are some of the best I've used. Excellent tread and true to scale sidewall detail.

I hope you like it..

Sweet lookin' Charger , geetee66 !

Superb job on polishing that piece of "organic human compost" of a kit !

I wonder if those nice tyres and wheels are available in the U.S. ? They look great !

Thanks for your comments everyone

I got the wheels from HobbySearch in Japan as nobody seems to sell them in the UK.

Very cool. Great job on the engine comp. But you forgot to BMF your wheel lip moldings. ;)

Thanks

I opted for no chrome, but I guess I should've sanded off the wheelarch lips.

Looks great! Do you have any pics of the kit blower? I'm in need of one and if you ain't using it and don't mind.. Cheers :)

I'll take a pic for you. You'll need to do a little bit of work as I bought the kit and then found it had been kinda started. The blower scoop is in two parts and hasn't been glued very well. It'll need prising apart and reassembly. You are more than welcome to it. PM me your address and you can have it and the kit blower belt, too.
