crazyjim Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Got this bugger done today. It was a freebie from IPMS that I'm doing a review on. It's painted in HOK cocoa pearl over a white basecoat. I used the Hemi engine option.
disabled modeler Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 Nice Jim...I had one when I was a kid cant wait till they show up around here...figure too.
Bartster Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 How cool ! This thing just Screams 70s muscle ! Very sweet ride. & SO shiny !!
slusher Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Real nice build Jim. Love the color and hemi...
twopaws Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Very nice period piece. Takes me back to the days of wide ovals, cragars and a jacked up rear end. Those were some good o' days.
crazyjim Posted January 11, 2014 Author Posted January 11, 2014 Thank you everyone. I still love the '70s.
Guest Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Nice! I wonder if the 71 Duster chassis will fit?
crazyjim Posted January 12, 2014 Author Posted January 12, 2014 Thanks Lee. I have no idea about the frame swap.
oldscool Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Good to see this kit built and it definitely has the 70's written all over it.
Mopar - D Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 Jim nice looking Dart were there any fit up problems with the kit?
crazyjim Posted January 15, 2014 Author Posted January 15, 2014 thanks fellas. The bumpers don't fit very well.
Guest Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 thanks fellas. The bumpers don't fit very well.The front bumper would fit better if it was mounted in the right place. It should be above the lip that you have it mounted underneath. The top of the bumper should be just under the grille. Looks like the rear bumper should be mounted a little higher also. Hard to tell in the photo.
crazyjim Posted January 15, 2014 Author Posted January 15, 2014 I'll have to check that out. Thanks Roger.
crazyjim Posted January 15, 2014 Author Posted January 15, 2014 Thanks Rich. I gotta try those bumpers again when I get home.
bbowser Posted January 15, 2014 Posted January 15, 2014 Nobody is choosing you off in that! Great model.
