cartpix Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 It's pretty much, out of the box, with just a wheel & tire swap. I just wanted to finish one, so I just did plug wires, flocked the interior, and a light weathering. No wheel tubs, no roll cage, no body mods, etc., that usually stall my projects.

Danno Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Sweet! I had a good friend years ago with one that looked just like your model. Red interior and Cragars and all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjordan2 Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Gorgeous and SHINY :) This is an excellent build, but if you look at the 4th picture, it is definitely not shiny. Needs more gloss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PARTSMARTY Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 GREAT LOOK-GREAT COLOR COMBO.IT JUST SEEMS THAT THERS TOO MUCH UNDERCARRIAGE WEATHERING FOR SUCH A CLEAN CAR.NICE BUILD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cartpix Posted December 23, 2013 Author Share Posted December 23, 2013 Thanks for all the comments. o-man, it is a driver. It's meant to look like it's been lightly modified & driven a couple years. Rdkingjay, the under carriage is primer gray. Sjordan2, I'd like to say, it's a couple years of sun fading, but I just couldn't get it shine, as much as I'd have liked. It's is shiny, just not show car shiny. I'll do better on the next one. ;-) Partsmarty, It's my first weathering & I may have overdone it, but it is built to represent a coupe years old.

slusher Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Sharp build and love the silver and red combo. Very nice touch on the cragars.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horsepower Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Nice build, & don't worry about the undercarriage or the shine, they are both about what would be expected in the time period had this car been used as a trade in & got a "new" paint job to spruce it up for resale.

bbowser Posted December 24, 2013 Share Posted December 24, 2013 The 1st gen Chargers are my favorite, and you did it up well. Nice foil work. Very cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cartpix Posted December 24, 2013 Author Share Posted December 24, 2013 Somebody stole the wipers? I wish I knew who. I asked the dog & he just cocked his head. I even cleaned my hobby room but they were MIA. If they turn up, I will install them. It does have a rear view mirror, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
