TFchronos Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 They both look amazing, you did an excellent job on them!
JasonC Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Man these are nice!!!! And since you noted they are not factory correct, I won't pick on you about the 6Bbl and black framerails on the front

And since you noted they are not factory correct, I won't pick on you about the 6Bbl and black framerails on the front Thanks everyone, About the 440- 6 Barrel, What about it not being correct That one I based off a 1:1 that recently passed through the Mopar Forums, I know they never listed them as an option in '69, but old Ma Mopar had a thing about building things she should never have, a guy just posted photo's recently on the B Body forum of a Mis-stamped rim.

Nick Got the link to the thead on the factory 69 GTX 440-6? And where did you get the 440 Super Commando pie pan decal? Edited July 28, 2013 by JasonC
Mopar - D Posted July 28, 2013 Posted July 28, 2013 Nick I really like your build of the 2 GTX's nice and clean looking and will look right at home in your up coming dealership. I'm also working on a MOPAR dealership to on the side to.

I'll have to do some digging, The Pie tin I printed myself. Nick I really like your build of the 2 GTX's nice and clean looking and will look right at home in your up coming dealership. I'm also working on a MOPAR dealership to on the side to. That is very cool and basically what I want to build. I do have photo's of a real semi-local Mopar dealer that a friends '69 Fargo 100 came from. Nick
charlie8575 Posted July 29, 2013 Posted July 29, 2013 That convertible is especially nice. I never think too much of black and blue together, but that shade of blue goes nicely, and I can imagine that a white top with that would look very sharp indeed. Charlie Larkin
Nick Winter Posted July 31, 2013 Author Posted July 31, 2013 Thanks Guys. Charlie, I saw a 1:1 '69 Road Runner that was Black with a Blue interior, I absolutely fell in love with the color combination, figured it would look better on a rag top though, I'm kinda partial to them Nick
Nick Winter Posted August 1, 2013 Author Posted August 1, 2013 Thanks Bill, they turned out pretty good.
Sixties Sam Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 Great looking Mopars! I really like the convertible. Sam
